PREFACE. 



\/f UCH of the matter in this volume is based, in large measure, on the 
corresponding publication of a decade ago. The old historical 
sketch of the University has been rearranged to some extent; a few minor 
points, formerly omitted, have been introduced, and such other inser- 
tions and additions have been made as were necessary to bring the whole 
down to date. 

The historical sketches of the professional departments and of the 
schools of the academic department were prepared by the heads of 
these departments and schools. 

The biographical sketches of the presidents and chancellors of the 
University have been taken, in the main, from recent University period- 
icals. The first six appeared in the University of Mississippi Magazine 
in 1902, and were from the pen of Professor Dabney Lipscomb. The 
sketch of ex-Chancellor Fulton was published in the College Annual, 
"Ole Miss," in 1907. That of Chancellor Kincannon, with additions 
made later by the editor of this book, appeared in the Annual of the fol- 
lowing year. This last was also from Professor Lipscomb. 

The register of officers and students closes with the session of 1908-9. 

Mr. J. E. Calhoun and Mr. D. N. Powers, Secretaries to the Chancellor, 
had charge of the work of revising the lists of names contained in the His- 
torical Catalogue of 1899 and of preparing the additional list embracing 
all students who have attended the University since that time. Those 
Chancery Court clerks who rendered valuable assistance in this matter 
of compiling statistics in regard to former University students residing 
in their counties are entitled to sincere thanks. 

It has been found advisable to arrange the names of students first in 
the order of their entrance into the University, and by classes, and also 
to give a complete alphabetical list. The dates in this index refer to one 
year in which the student was enrolled in the University, and will serve 
as a guide to further information recorded in that part of the catalogue 
corresponding to the year shown. 

In the general catalogue of former students, it has been attempted to 
give the present address of all who are living. While this has been accom- 
plished in many instances, it has been found impossible to locate a large 
number. The prefix "Hon." is used in its common sense to indicate one 
who has been a member of the Legislature; other abbreviations will be 
readily understood. The duplication of names is intentional when the 
first record shows the entrance of the student and the second his gradu- 
ation. It is believed that this arrangement of names in reference to 
years of attendance is more satisfactory to those who will read the list 
than any other order.

vi PREFACE. 

It is an unfortunate but unavoidable feature of work of this kind that 
the facts gathered by correspondence are those relating to such accom- 
plishments of individuals as have brought them prominently before the 
public eye. While many are thus mentioned as having achieved dis- 
tinction, it should be carefully borne in mind that there are hundreds of 
names in this catalogue belonging to those who have done their life work 
in the noblest manner, and who as citizens and as patriots are worthy of 
the highest praise, and yet whose taste or inclination has kept them from 
seeking ublic positions. Many of these have devoted themselves with 
the greatest success to private business, as planters, merchants, physi- 
cians, lawyers, teachers, in whose eminent success in these lines the Uni- 
versity properly takes as much pride as in the achievements of those of 
her sons who have won more conspicuous positions. 



The University of Mississippi. 



HISTORICAL SKETCH. 



/^NE of the last acts of the old Continental Congress was tlie passage of 
^•^^ the bill which became a law on July 13, 1787, and which has become cel- 
ebrated in the history of public education and otherwise as the "ordinance 
of 1787 for the government of the Northwest Territory." The third of 
the six articles of compact forming a part of the ordinance foreshadowed 
the policy of the Federal Government, and that of the States to be formed 
out of the territory to which the ordinance related, in reference to edu- 
cation, in the statement that "religion, morality and knowledge, being 
necessary to good government and the happiness of mankind, schools 
and the means of education shall forever be encouraged." 

By the Act of May 20, 1790, Congress extended the general provisions 
of the ordinance of 1787 to the Mississippi territory, and by the Act of 
March 3, 1815, reserved from sale, for the support of common school edu- 
cation, the sixteenth section of every township of land, and one entire 
township for the use of a seminary of learning in this territory, which 
included the district now covered by the States of Alabama and Missis- 
sippi. By the Act of February 20, 1819, the State of Mississippi received 
in lieu of the township just referred to, another single township; "vested 
in the Legislature of the said State, in trust, for the support of a semi- 
nary of learning therein." 

The principles stated in the ordinance of 1787 became national policy. 
To every State formed out of the public domain Congress has granted, in 
carrying out the spirit of this ordinance, lands for the support of common 
schools and a seminary of learning or university. 

The State of Mississippi received thus one section in every township 
for common schools, and ONE township for the support of a seminary of 
learning — the one received under the Act of Congress of February 20, 
1819. 

These grants have been uniformly made to the State or its Legisla- 
ture, in trust, for the purpose intended, and in the case of every State 
and Territory formed out of the public domain already, and in the case 
of each being formed, the Acts of Congress have been so framed as to se- 
cure to each State clearly, without incumbrance of any kind, not less than 
two townships of public land for the support of a seminary of learning or 
university, excepting only the State of Mississippi, which under the orig- 
inal Act received but one.

2 UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 

The Act of Congress making the first grant for a seminary of learning 
to the State of Mississippi is dated February 20, 1819, and its wording is 
peculiar. After the usual grant for a seat of government comes — 

SEC. 2. And be it further enacted, That in addition to the township of 
land granted for the support of Jefferson College, there shall be granted 
in the said State another township, or a quantity of land equal thereto, 
to be located in tracts of not less than four entire sections each, which 
shall be vested in the Legislature of the said State, in trust, for the sup- 
port of a seminary of learning therein. ******♦♦*•* 

The expression "in addition to the township of land granted for the 
support of Jefferson College," suggests that Congress thought when this 
act was passed that Jefferson College was an institution belonging to the 
State of Mississippi. As a matter of fact, Jefferson College was a pri- 
vate corporation chartered in the Mississippi Territory in 1802. To this 
private corporation, by Act dated March 3d, 1803, Congress had donated 
one township of land. This land had been located on the Tombeckbee 
river, and when the Territory of Alabama was formed by the Act of March 
3d, 1817, these lands fell within the Territory of Alabama. The grant 
made to Jefferson College was made before the State of Mississippi was 
organized and was by its terms a donation to a private corporation. 

The official history of the Public Domain classes the grant to Jefferson 
College under the list of "Donations and Special Grants" and gives the order 
of the Secretary of the Treasury of the United States locating the lands* 
and dated October 5, 1812. It is important to note that the site of Jeffer- 
son College was near Natchez, in the present limits of the State of Mis- 
sissippi, but the township granted to it was located on the Tombeckbee 
river, and this location was not changed up to the time when the Act of 
Congress of February 20, 1819, was passed, although at that time the 
lands were situated in what had become the separate Territory of Alabama, 
by the Act of March 3, 1817. 

If, therefore, in the Act of February 20, 1819, Congress considered 
that the grant made to Jefferson College had been made to the people or 
the Legislature of the Mississippi Territory, it assumed that a grant made 
to a private corporation had been made to the people, and assumed also 
that a township, actually then located within the limits of the Territory 
of Alabama, belonged to the people of Mississippi. 

Without dwelling upon the complications that would have arisen if 
Mississippi had claimed the ownership of a township of land within the 
limits of the State of Alabama, it is worthy of note that from its founda- 
tion, in 1802, to the year 1826, there is nothing in the Acts of the Terri- 
torial or State Legislatures in Mississippi indicating that Jefferson Col- 
lege was in any way under the control of the State. It is true that the 
Territorial Legislature in the Act of December 13, 1816, provided for a 
loan of money to the trustees of Jefferson College, but it also provided 
that "bond in double the amount should be taken," and that suit should be 
instituted if the funds should not be returned at the stipulated time. 
Moreover, in the same Act of December 13, 1816, the Legislature made 
donations of money to two other schools — Greene Academy and St. Ste- 



UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 3 

phen's Academy — which were, in no sense, State institutions, and not 
so regarded by the Legislature. 

The Legislature and people of the newly formed State of Mississippi were 
. eager to utilize the means for public education afforded in the grants of 
land made by Congress in the Act of February 20, 1819. It was, how- 
ever, at once evident to the Legislature that it would have difficulty in 
securing the township which had been granted by Congress to Jefferson 
College, a private corporation. The Act of Congress of Febraury 20, 
1819, implied that the original grant to Jefferson College had been in- 
tended for the Territory and State of Mississippi. It was evident to the 
Legislature of the State that there was no valid ground on which it could 
base a claim to this township, however much it might desire to have this 
addition to the lands it had received from Congress for the support of 
common schools and a seminary of learning. The trustees of Jefferson 
College seemed willing to relinquish some of their rights as an independent 
corporation if thereby they might help the institution to prosperity, or 
gain assistance from the State. 

The following extract from a "Historical Sketch of Jefferson College, 
published by order of the Board of Trustees in 1840," page 79, bears out this 
statement: 

"To afford an opportunity to the Legislature of placing the institution 
[Jefferson College] more immediately under its control and management, 
and to give to it that patronage and support which would be due to it as a 
State Institution, the trustees proposed to the next session of the Legisla- 
ture, in January, 1825, a modification of their charter. The act of the 
thirtieth of January, 1826, was accordingly passed and accepted by the 
trustees." . 

It was clearly understood, by both the Legislature and the trustees of 
Jefferson College, at this time, 1826, that the College was not a "State 
institution." 

In 1829, the Legislature of the State adpoted a resolution authorizing 
the Executive — 

"To appoint three agents to inquire into all the means and resources in 
the State applicable to the purpose of general education; to confer with 
the trustees of Jefferson College and ascertain the condition and pros- 
pects of the institution, and whether it was practicable, and on what terms 
the trustees would surrender the charter to the State. 

"The conference accordingly took place on the twenty-seventh of 
October, 1829, and an address, setting forth their views at large, was pre- 
sented by the agents, accompanied by several interrogatories propounded 
by them as to the dimensions and arrangements of the college building, 
the endowments and available funds, the number and character of the 
professors, its future prospects, the expediency of surrendering the char- 
ter, and, if the surrender was deemed expedient, what report the agents 
should make to the Legislature as to the money loaned to the institu- 
tion." {Extract from "H storical Sketch of Jefferson College," page 83.) 

From the same "Historical Sketch," published by the trustees of Jef- 
ferson College, the following statements are taken {see pp. 83, 84) : 



4 UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 

"The temper of the board assembled on this occasion was most favor- 
able to the desires of the agents. The investigation, however, given 
the subject by the committee appointed to prepare a reply on behalf of 
the trustees, satisfied not only the trustees, but the agents themselves, 
of the utter inexpediency, if not impracticability, of the measure. 

««* * * As to the proposed surrender of the charter, it was shown 
that the proposition involved not merely the annihilation of Jeflferson 
College, but the forfeiture of its resources, and, consequently, could con- 
fer no benefit to any other institution, though established in its name; 
that it could not, by the clearest principle of law, transmit its revenues 
or endowments to an institution erected in its stead; for, as to all pur- 
poses to which they were designed, they would necessarily fail with the 
demise of the corporation in which they were originally vested. * * * 
The land on the Tombigby, if it did not revert to the original grantor, 
would escheat to the State of Alabama." 

After this failure to secure the surrender of the charter of Jefferson 
College to the State, in 1829, on account of the difficulties indicated, all 
hope of the State's gaining control of the township of land granted by 
Congress to Jefferson College was lost, and the Legislature turned its 
attention to the proper administration of the trust connected with the 
second township mentioned in the Act of Congress of February 20, 1819, 
and received previously to 1825. 

Various causes prevented the speedy use of this grant for the purpose 
intended. The ambiguity of the Act of donation in its reference to Jef- 
ferson College, a private institution, itself a beneficiary of Congress, the 
desire of this and other schools to be taken under the fostering care of the 
State and to become the recipients of the seminary fund, and the fact 
that the Indian title was not extinguished to a large part of the territory 
embraced in the State, are reasons which seem to have had weight in 
causing the putting off to a later date of the founding of a State Univer- 
sity upon the grant of land received from the Federal Congress. 

From 1829 to 1833 the State adopted the policy of leasing the seminary 
lands. As these were agricultural lands, generally covered with heavy 
timber, and as other lands were abundant in the market, the plan was 
not successful, and up to 1831 only $8,402 was received from rents. In 
1831 the Legislature directed the lands to be sold. Thirty-five and one- 
half sections were sold, in the manner prescribed by the Legislature, for 
$277,332.52. The Act of the Legislature of February 20, 1840, appropria- 
ted all the proceeds of the sale of seminary lands "for the use and benefit 
of the University of the State of Mississippi." 

The management of the funds received from the sale of the original 
grant from Congress was vested in the Legislature of the State. The 
Act of the Legislature of March 5, 1880, provides for the ascertainment 
of the indebtedness of the State on account of the seminary fund, and 
"that the sum of $32,643 be, and the same is hereby, appropriated for the 
year 18S0, and annually thereafter, for the purpose of paying the inter- 
est due on said sum of $544,061.22." 



VNIVEB8ITT OF MISSISSIPPI. 5 

The fact that Mississippi was entitled to at least one more township of 
land for the State University seems to have been entirely forgotten in 
the State until the attention of Chancellor Fulton was attracted to it in 
his study of the history of the University in 1892. He called the atten- 
tion of the Board of Trustees to the matter in his annual report in June, 
1892. No action was then taken in the matter. Attention was again 
called to it in 1893, and the board authorized the Chancellor to prepare 
a memorial to Congress reciting the facts and asking for the grant of ad- 
ditional lands to indemnify the State and the University. This memo- 
rial was prepared as directed, signed by the members of the Board of 
Trustees, and presented to Congress. It enlisted the hearty support of 
all the Senators and Representatives in Congress from Mississippi. The 
memorial asked, in order that the State and University might be fully 
indemnified for the failure of Congress to grant to Mississippi in 1819 
her full quota of land for a State University, that Congress would grant 
to the State of Mississippi for the State University three additional town- 
ships, making the amount to this State for the State University as great 
as to any of the States for this purpose. 

As a result of this memorial, Congress, by the Act of June 20, 1894, 
granted one additional township of land to the State for the State Uni- 
versity. 

This land was selected in 1895 out of lands that had been formerly re- 
served for naval uses. These lands were restored to the Public Domain 
by Act of March 3, 1895, whose passage was urged by Chancellor Fulton 
with the eo-operation of the delegation from Mississippi in Congress. 
Upon the passage of this Act, land was at once selected by the Governor 
for the University. This additional township of 23,040 acres lies in the 
yellow pine district of the State in Harrison and Jackson Counties. 

On March 23, 1900, the State Treasurer gave credit to the University 
for the sum of $134,688.24, being the proceeds of the sale by the Trustees 
of the University of Mississippi made on the 10th of March, 1900, of the 
timber on 16,833.53 acres of land, a part of the grant of 23,040 acres of 
land made by Congress in the Act of July 20, 1894. This fund is known 
as the 1894 Land Grant Fund. To it was added, October 10, 1905, the sum 
of $20,405 from the sale of timber on other parts of the township. 

On the 20th of February, 1840, the Legislature passed an Act provid- 
ing for the location of the University. Upon the report of commission- 
ers appointed under this Act in the year 1841, before the organization of 
the University, the present location was fixed by the action of the Leg- 
islature by a majority of one vote. On the twenty-fourth of February, 
1844, the University of Mississippi was duly chartered by the Legislature 
and its first Board of Trustees named.* In July, 1848, the election of the

first Faculty occurred, and on the sixth of November, of that year, the 
first session opened. 

The first Board of Trustees was composed of men who ranked among 
the most distinguished citizens of the State. Among these, Hon. James 
Alexander Ventress has the distinction of being the author of the bill, 
which became a law in 1844, organizing the University. He received 
his education in the common schools of Wilkinson County, Mississipi, 
at the University of Edinburgh, the Academie de Paris, and the Univer- 
sity of Berlin. He was a brilliant scholar and writer. While in Berlin 
he was the German correspondent and assistant editor of the Revue de 
Deux Mondes. To the organization, equipment and maintenance of the 
University of Mississippi he devoted his talents and his large political 
influence as a member of the Legislature and Speaker of the House of 
Representatives. He was continuously a member of the Board of Trus- 
tees from 1844 to 1867, the time of his death. An even longer period, 
twenty-six years, was covered by the valuable services of another mem- 
ber of the first Board, Judge James M. Howry. From 1844 to 1870 this 
devoted friend of the University gave freely of his time and talents in 
untiring efforts to advance the interests of the institution. During the 
greater part of this time he discharged with eminent ability and con- 
spicuous fidelity the duties of the combined offices of Secretary and Treas- 
urer. It was Judge Howry who successfully led the forces favoring 
the introduction of the Evidences of Christianity into the curriculum 
and establishing the University on a basis distinctly Christian. 

These are types of the men named in the list of Trustees of the Uni- 
versity given in this volume. No citizens of the State as a body have 
shown a higher degree of intelligence, or a larger or more unselfish devo- 
tion to the highest public interests than the men who have from 1844 
given their time and influence to the promotion of higher education through 



trustees of the University of Mississippi, in Lafayette County, and they and their successors 
in office are hereby declared and constituted a body , politic and corporate, by the name and 
style of the "University of Mississippi," a majority of whom shall form a quorum to do business, 
but a committee of less number may be appointed to transact necessary business in the interim 
of a regular session of said trustees. 

2. Said corporation shall be possessed of all the general powers, privileges and emoluments 
now secured to similar corporations by the constitution and laws of this State, and to adopt 
such by-laws and rules as they may deem expedient for the accomplishment of the trust reposed 
in them, not repugnant to the constitution and laws of this State. 

3. The said board of trustees shall have full power, and entire control, over the funds be- 
longing to the "University of Mississippi," or the "Seminary Fund," after it shall have been 
collected, to be by them applied toward the consummation of the plan of the "University of 
Mississippi;" and said trustees shall have power to devise and adopt such a system of learning 
as in their judgment they may deem most advisable to be pursued in the course of education 
in the University; to employ a competent person to draft a plan of the same and appoint com- 
missioners to contract for the erection of the University building so soon as they may think 
advisable. 

4. Said board of trustees shall have power to fill all vacancies that may occur in their body. 

5. This Act shall be repealed at the will of the Legislature, and shall be in force from and 
after its passage.

the University, without other compensation than that which comes from 
the satisfaction of a high duty well discharged. 

The first meeting of the Trustees was held in the capital of the State, 
January 15, 1845, at which time an organization was effected. Under the 
original charter the Board was a self-perpetuating corporation consist- 
ing of thirteen members. In 1857, by an Act of the Legislature, the Gov- 
ernor became, ex officio, a member and President of the Board. Since 
the Civil War vacancies have been filled by the Governor's appointment. 
An Act of the Legislature of 1870 states that such appointments are to be 
made with the advice and consent of the Senate. In 1876 the number of 
trustees was increased to fifteen. There are now seventeen members of 
the Board appointed for a term of six years, one ex officio, the State Su- 
perintenc'ent of Public Education, one from each of the eight Congres- 
sional Districts, and eight from the State at large, with the Governor as 
ex officio President. In this Board is vested the supreme control of the 
University. 

The second regular meeting of the Board of Trustees was held in Ox- 
ford, July 14, 1845. The Board accepted two half-sections of land lying 
immediately west of the town of Oxford, the south half of section 20, and 
the north half of section 29, township 8, range 3 W., which had been pur- 
chased by citizens of Oxford and Lafayette County and donated to the 
State for the location of the University. Preliminaries were arranged for 
the construction of buildings and an executive committee appointed to 
attend to details. At that time a virgin forest covered ' he present Cam- 
pus of the University. The Board seems to have been hampered by diffi- 
culties in the way of securing the funds supposed to be available in the 
State treasury for their undertaking, and but little progress was made 
in preparation for work. At the next meeting in January, 1846, William 
Nicholl, an Englishman, was elected as supervising architect. Plans were 
made for the Lyceum Building, the two contiguous dormitories, and resi- 
dences for four professors, and work was begun upon these buildings prob- 
ably in 1847. At the meeting of the Board held in Oxford July 12, 1848, 
the election of a faculty was considered. During this meeting of the 
Board occurred an earnest discussion relating to the religious character 
of the University. Two members of the Board vigorously opposed the 
introduction of the Evidences of Christianity into the curriculum, and 
the election of any Christian minister to a professorship. It was then 
definitely settled that the University should have stamped upon it such 
religious and moral character in its work as would be acceptable to the 
Christian people who compose a large majority of the people of the State 
of Mississippi. 

George Frederick Holmes was elected President of the University. 
Albert Taylor Bledsoe was elected Professor of Mathematics, etc. John 
Millington was elected Professor of Natural Sciences; Rev. John N. Wad- 
del was elected Professor of Languages. To the President of the Uni- 
versity was assigned instruction in Mental anf Moral Philosophy, Logic, 
Belles-Lettres, Political Economy, International Law. To the Profes- 
sor of Mathematics was assigned instruction in that department and in

the science of Astronomy. The Professor of Natural Science was required 
to give instruction in Chemistry, Botany, Geology, Mineralogy and Nat- 
ural Philosophy. The Professor of Languages was required to give in- 
struction in the Latin, Greek, Hebrew, French, Spanish and German lan- 
guages. After laying these plans the Board adjourned to meet in October 
following for the opening exercises of the University. The record in the 
minutes of the Board of Trustees for Monday, November 6th, 1848, is as 
follows: "The Board met pursuant to adjournment; present, Messrs. 
Davis, Howry, Pegues, Thompson, Williams and Young. The President 
being absent, Mr. Young was called to the chair, and this being appointed 
as the day for opening the University, the Board repaired to the Univer- 
sity buildings to attend to the installation of the Faculty, whereupon Mr, 
Thompson delivered an address on the part of the Trustees, and Mr. Presi- 
dent Holmes on the part of the Faculty, and thereupon the institution 
was declared open for the reception of students, and on motion of Mr. 
Davis the Board adjourned until to-morrow morning at eight o'clock." 

During this first session eighty students were enrolled. The records 
indicate that most of these young men were very poorly prepared for 
any sort of college work, and that their ideals of college life included much 
more of frolic than of labor. The records of the first Faculty meetings 
indicate a considerable exercise of disciplinary power. Nearly one month 
was lost before suitable text-books could be procured, and this oppor- 
tunity was largely improved by those students who were inclined to idle 
habits. The late Chancellor Waddel, who was a participant in these 
beginnings, is authority for the statement that probably no more crude 
and disorderly set of young men ever assembled in any college. The 
educating power of the University is exemplified by the fact that very 
many of these young men have worthily filled places of highest eminence 
and influence. The President of the University was forced to return to 
Virginia on account of sickness in his family in the spring of 1849. His 
three colleagues, with Professor Bledsoe as acting President, completed 
the work of the session. 

The records of the Board of Trustees show the following entry on Mon- 
day, July 9, 1849: "This being the day of the commencement of the first 
annual examinations of the students at the University, the Board took a 
recess at 9 o'clock A. M. and attended the examinations of the Freshman 
class on the Latin and Greek Languages, and at 3 P. M. the Board again 
took a recess and attended the examination of the Freshman class on 
Mathematics, which closed the exercises of the day." 

Similar honor was paid by the Board to the Sophomore class the next 
day. On Thursday, July 12th, 1849, "the Board took a recess and re- 
paired to the Presbyterian church, where an address was delivered by 
the Hon. A. M. Clayton, President of the Board of Trustees, and a com- 
mencement address by Prof. A. T. Bledsoe, President pro tern, of the 
Faculty, in the presence of the students and a large auditory." 

It is noteworthy, and probably consistent with the experiences of this 
first session, that in this commencement address Prof. Bledsoe discusses 
total depravity as a factor to be considered in educational work. Other 



UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 9 

exercises at this first commencement consisted of "composition and decla- 
mation by students." There was no class more advanced than the Sopho- 
more. 

At the close of this first session Dr. Augustus B. Longstreet, of 
Georgia, was elected President of the University. 

Under the wise administration of the Faculty and Trustees, the Uni- 
versity began to grow rapidly in numbers, and in the confidence of the 
public. The statistical information set forth in this catalogue will show 
who were connected with the institution as officers and students, and 
will indicate something of the extent of the work of each session. In 
1856 President Longstreet resigned, and Prof. F. A. P. Barnard was elected 
to succeed him. President Barnard was, fortunately, able to secure from 
the Legislature funds for new buildings which were needed, and for the 
larger and better equipment of the library and the scientific departments 
of the University. The wisdom of his work in this direction was proven 
by the fact that the University of Mississippi speedily took rank as one of 
the best equipped institutions in the country. The value of the prestige 
thus attained was tangible and has been permanent. 

In the spring of 1861 the excitement due to political events seriously 
interrupted the work of the University. Many students withdrew before 
the close of the session, in order to enlist in the Confederate army. A 
company of students, which has become historic, was organized on the 
campus under the title "University Greys." The record of the service 
of this company of students is shown by the following memorandum, 
furnished by Hon. J. L. Power, Secretary of State:

It is probable that four-fifths of all the young men whose names appear 
on the rolls as students of the University, from its organization up to the 
beginning of the civil war, enlisted in the Confederate service. This fact 
is indicated in this catalogue with regard to many students individually, 
and such indication is by no means intended to show that others did not 
see such service. A very large proportion, much larger than the average 
of Confederate soldiers, sacrificed their lives in the service of the State. 



10 UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 

At the close of the session in the spring of the year 1861 there was some 
expectation that the exercises might be resumed in the fall. At the ap- 
pointed time for opening the next session only four students appeared for 
matriculation. Realizing that the civil war would continue indefinitely, 
all the members of the Faculty resigned and the doors of the institution 
were closed. During the civil war the buildings of the University were 
occupied sometimes by Confederate and sometimes by Federal soldiery. 
Soon after the battle of Shiloh they were used for hospital purposes, and 
gave their shelter to some 1,500 sick and wounded Confederate soldiers. 
More than 700 of these sleep in unmarked graves in a cemetery near the 
University campus. 

When the University buildings were occupied by Federal soldiery the 
personal influence of the late Professors Barnard, Boynton and others 
who were in the North, secured the interest of General Grant in the pro- 
tection of the apparatus and buildings belonging to the institution. The 
close of the civil strife found the University buildings and other materials 
but little damaged by the vicissitudes of war. In the summer of 1865 
efforts were made at the first meeting of the Legislature to reorganize 
the institution, and the first session after the war opened in the fall of 
1865, under the presidency of Rev. John N. Waddel, D.D. Through all 
the vicissitudes of the reconstruction period the University experienced 
the same good fortune which had attended it during the civil war. It 
has constantly grown in influence and prestige. 

The statistical tables in this catalogue and other data herein given 
will sufficiently indicate the work and progress of the institution under 
the administration of Chancellors John N. Waddel, Alexander P. Stew- 
art, Edward Mayes, Robert B. Fulton, and up to the present time. The 
necessarily meagre facts stated in these pages in regard to those who have 
been students in the institution show by the outcome of its work that the 
institution has been singularly fortunate in the cultivation of strong 
character. This is undoubtedly d^ie to the fact that its policy has always 
been to secure diligent work on the part of its students together with 
manly deportment. 

The personnel of the student body in the ante-bellum days was entirely 
different from that of later years. When it is remembered that the per 
capita distribution of wealth in Mississippi was larger in the years pre- 
ceding the Civil War than in any other State, it will be understood that 
the student body was composed very largely of the sons of wealthy par- 
ents, many of whom did not realize the importance of work and study. 
But the record of the lives of these men show that the student body of 
this period has furnished to the State many of the noblest patriots and 
citizens. 

Immediately after the Civil War the halls of the University were filled 
with a class of students never before seen in any American college. They 
were the sons of parents who had been wealthy but whose wealth had 
been entirely swept away by the Civil War. Perhaps half of these young 
men had served in the Confederate Army. With such preparation for 
college as these circumstances suggest they came with possibly as little 



UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. H 

of scholastic attainments as those students who entered in 1848; but they 
came with a determination born of necessity. The efforts put forth and 
the influence felt while here resulted in the development of a type of manly 
character and power which cannot be equalled by the records of any other 
American college. A study of the lifework of this group of students fully 
verifies this strong statement as fact. 

In later years the University has been able to achieve higher advance- 
ment in scholarship. Its preparatory work has been abolished. It has 
over one hundred high schools affiliated with it and engaged in the prepa- 
ration of students for its courses. Its student body in late years has been 
characterized by a somewhat broader range of scholarship. Every effort 
is made to keep its students in their studies and in all that enlists their 
attention fully abreast with the activities, intellectual and other, which 
characterize college life at the beginning of the twentieth century. 

While in the original plan of the University the establishment of a 
course in Governmental Science and Law was provided for, six years 
elapsed before, in 1854, a Law Class was organized. 

Beginning with the session of 1882-3, women have been admitted to 
the University upon the same terms and conditions as men. 

In 1892 preparatory courses in the University were discontinued. Since 
that time the grade of educational work done has been advanced fully 
one year, the number of bona fide college students has increased from 167 
to nearly 500 (October, 1909). 

In 1900 the Fanny J. Ricks Summer Term of the University began a 
much needed work for those who cannot attend the regular session. This 
work was maintained in the summer of 1900, 1901, 1902 and 1903 through 
the liberality of Mrs. Ricks. Her generosity secured additional funds 
for 1903 which greatly enlarged the work in scope and usefulness. 

Courses in Engineering were organized in 1900. (Some such work had 
been offered in 1872, but discontinued in 1875.) In 1903 Departments of 
Education and Medicine were added. As yet only the first half of a reg- 
ular four-year course in Medicine has been given. Beginning with the 
session of 1909-10 the work of the last two years will be offered at Vicks- 
burg in connection with the State Charity Hospital of that place. This 
property, valued at $150,000.00, was acquired by the University in 1908. 
A Department of Pharmacy has been in successful operation throughout 
the current session. 

In 1902 the Legislature appropriated the sum of $93,700 for various 
improvements, $24,000 of this being for current expenses. This fund 
enabled the University to enlarge greatly its facilities and advantages 
for the young men and young women of Mississippi. With it were con- 
structed substantial additions to the public buildings and a commodious 
dormitory for women students. 



12 UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 

With the liberal appropriations made by the Legislatures of 1904 and 
1906, the institution has added much to its equipment and thus increased 
its usefulness. 

The Legislature of 1908 made the University the largest appropriation 
in the latter's history. As results, a large and thoroughly equipped dor- 
mitory for men, a commodious dining hall, and a new power house have 
been built; the light and heat distributing systems have been renewed 
and enlarged; and about one-half mile of wide concrete walks have been 
laid where most needed on the campus. 

The following named have served as the chief executive officers of the 
University under the titles and for the periods indicated: 

President— George Frederick Holmes, LL. D 1848-1849 

Prmdeni— Augustus B. Longstreet, LL.D., D.D 1849-1856 

President— Frederick A. P. Barnard, LL.D., D.D 1856-1859 

C^ianceiZor— Frederick A. P. Barnard, LL.D., D.D 1859-1861 

Chancellor— John Newton Waddel, LL.D., D.D 1865-1874 

Chancellor— Gen. Aleaxnder P. Stewart 1874-1886 

Chairman of Faculty— Edw. Mayes, LL.D., F.S.C 1886-1889 

Chancellor— Edward Mayes, LL.D., F.S.C 1889-1891 

Vice-Chancellor— Robert Burwell Fulton, A.M 1892-1892 

Chancellor— Robert Burwell Fulton, A.M., LL.D 1892-1906 

Vice-chancellor— Mired Hume, C.E., D.Sc 1906-1907 

Chancellor — Andrew Armstrong Kincannon, M.S., LL.D 1907- 

NOTE.— Chancellor Mayes resigned January 1, 1892, and Vice-Chancellor Fulton acted as 
Chancellor until the end of the session, when he was elected to the Chancellorship. 

From the opening of the University, in 1848, to the year 1870, the so- 
called "close curriculum" was in use. There was a course of study, en- 
tirely prescribed, leading to the degree of Bachelor of Arts, and a pre- 
scribed course leading to the degree of Bachelor of Laws. To say that a 
student was a "regular" student and in the Freshman, Sophomore, Junior 
or Senior class, was to define precisely his work. An "irregular" student 
was one not in the line of progress towards a degree, but taking a selected 
course of study. There was no department of preparatory education in 
the University previous to 1861. When the University again opened its 
doors in the fall of 1865, the lack of educational facilities in the State made 
it advisable to establish a department of preparatory education in the 
University, and this was continued until the end of the session of 1893. 

The "close curriculum" system of education was changed by action of 
the Board of Trustees, taken October 26, 1870. By this action each stu- 
dent was allowed to choose one of these courses leading to a degree: 

1. A defined course of four years' extent, leading to the degree of 
Bachelor of Arts, and similar in its requirements to the course previously 
offered. 

2. A defined course of three years' extent, leading to the degree of 
Bachelor of Science. 

3. A defined course of three years' extent, leading to the degree of 
Bachelor of Philosophy. 



UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 13 

4. A defined course of four years' extent, leading to the degree of Civil 
Engineer. 

** There were also offered — 

5. Several definite Post-graduate courses, requiring one or more years 
for completion, open to Bachelors of Arts, and leading to the degree of 
Master of Arts. 

6. Several definite Post-graduate courses, requiring at least two years 
for completion, open to Bachelors of Arts, and leading to the degree of 
Doctor of Philosophy. 

Since 1870 various changes have been made in the courses and degrees 
offered, suggested by the experience of this and other institutions doing 
similar work. All of these changes have tended to give greater thor- 
oughness and larger extent to the work done by any student in earning a 
degree. In 1873 the course for Bachelor of Science was made a four years' 
course, and, in 1875, the course for Bachelor of Philosophy became in fact 
a four years' course, and its topics of study largely elective. Election of 
studies was gradually allowed to a considerable extent in the courses for 
B.A. and B.S. until 1889. In 1889 Latin, Greek, English and Mathe- 
matics were made the characteristic studies of the B.A. course; Mathe- 
matics and the Natural Sciences of the B. S. course, and the Bachelor of 
Philosophy course was made entirely elective. 

At present the University offers courses leading to the degrees Bachelor 
of Science, Bachelor of Arts, Master of Arts, Bachelor of Laws, Bachelor of 
Engineering, Bachelor of Science (in Education), Bachelor of Arts (in Edu- 
cation), Doctor of Medicine, Graduate in Pharmacy, Bachelor of Pharmacy. 

The course for a bachelor's degree in the Academic Department re- 
quires the successful completion of sixty-five (65) units of work, a unit of 
work being defined to be the amount involved in attendance upon lectures or 
recitations for one hour a week for one session, or upon laboratory work for 
two hours a week for one session. The student's graduating thesis is counted 
as equivalent to one unit, and by systematic attendance upon physical 
culture in the gymnasium, not less than three hours a week during a ses- 
sion, he may reduce the number of points required for graduation by one 
for each of three sessions, making it possible to graduate thus with sixty- 
one (61) units of class-room work instead of sixty-five (65). The courses 
of study leading to a bachelor's degree are so arranged that sixteen (16) 
units will normally constitute full work for a student. With this amount 
he would graduate in four years. 

No student will be permitted to take less than thirteen (13) units of 
work, except in very special cases. No student having less than forty- 
five (45) points to his credit will be permitted to take more than eighteen 
(18) units of work. 

In the Department of Science, Literature and the Arts, the work of 
the course leading to a bachelor's degree consists of (1) Prescribed Studies, 
(2) Group Electives and (3) Free Electives. The Prescribed Studies as below 
indicated amount to twenty-eight (28) units of work. The Group Electives 
amount to from eighteen (18) to twenty-two (22) units, and the remainder 
of the course will allow about fifteen (15) units to be made by Free Elect- 
i9e».

(1) Prescribed Studies. Each candidate for a bachelor's degree must 
have placed to his credit on entrance, or complete in the University classes 
such college work in the following subjects as will entitle him to credit 
for the units indicated, which will be counted towards making the total 
number of units required for graduation; provided, such work has not 
been counted for points of admission. 

English and Rhetoric 5 units. 

Two Foreign Languages (at least three units in each 

of two) 6units. 

History 2 units.

Physics 2 units. 

Chemistry 2 units. 

Physiology, Botany, Zoology 2 units. 

Political Economy or Sociology 2 units. 

(2) Group Electives. Each candidate for a bachelor's degree is required 
to take either two or three of the twenty (20) courses indicated below and 
to take in them such an amount of work as will entitle him to receive 
credit for a total of from eighteen (18) to twenty-two (22) units, besides 
counting the credits he may have received in the same topics as Prescribed 
Studies. If he elects two, he is required to do from nine to eleven units 
in each. If he elects three, he is required to do from six to eight units in 
each.

(3) Free Electives. The Prescribed Studies and the Group Electives 
taken together amount to from forty-six (46) to fifty (50) units. Students 
will select the remainder of their work in Free Electives. If a student

completes all the work prescribed as a course for one class in one school in 
one session, he may count such at its face value in units and as h Free Elect- 
iv9i The courses that may be counted as Free Electives are marked with 
the letters a, b, c, d, and designating numbers in the Detailed Statements 
made later regarding the different schools in the University. 

Not more than ten (10) units of work in any one professional depart- 
ment may be counted as a Free Elective for either the B.S. or the B.A. 
degree. 

No Academic student may elect professional studies until he is en- 
titled to classification as a Junior in the Academic Department. 

For the past two sessions twelve (12) Carnegie units have been required 
for full admission to the Academic Department of the University. Be- 
ginning with 1910-11 the requirement will be fourteen (14) such units. 



ACADEMIC DEPARTMENT. 



PHILOSOPHY, LOGIC, SOCIOLOGY AND POLITICAL ECONOMY. 

In the history of the University the subjects included in this depart- 
ment have been variously assigned. During the earlier period instruc- 
tion was given in them largely by the Presidents and Chancellors, who, 
from the number and variety of the subjects committed to their charge, 
must have been men of marvelously versatile endowment. The cata- 
logue of 1853-54 contains the following: 

"Augustus B. Longstreet, LL.D., President and Professor of Mental 
and Moral Science, Rhetoric, Logic, Political Economy, International 
Law and Evidences of Christianity." In later years separate and dis- 
tinct Professorships were provided for these subjects and, with minor 
changes from time to time, they have been given prominence in the course 
of instruction. 

About the year 1855 there was organized the chair of Metaphysics and 
Ethics, the first incumbent of which was Rev. N. M. Crawford, D.D, of 
Georgia, who filled the chair for only one year, having been called to the 
Presidency of Georgetown College, Kentucky. This chair was subse- 
quently filled by Rev. Geo. W. Carter, D.D. (1857-60) and by Hon. L. Q. C. 
Lamar, LL.D. (1860-61), the latter of whom was again called to the chair 
of Ethics in 1866. 

In connection with the School of Metaphysics and Ethics there occurred 
in the very infancy of the institution an incident which doubtless, in no 
unimportant degree, influenced and determined the character of work 
to be done by the University throughout the whole of its existence. In 
one of the first meetings of the Board of Trustees a proposition was offered 
to exclude forever from the course of study the subject of Evidences of 
Christianity. This proposition provoked a prolonged and heated dis- 
cussion, a result of which was the resignation of one member of the Board, 
who in his letter of resignation took occasion to make a bitter assault 



IQ UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 

upon the Christian religion. Happily, however, an overwhelming ma- 
jority of the Board were favorable to the admission of the subject into 
the curriculum, and the result of the controversy was to stamp the Uni- 
versity as a Christian, though in no sense as a sectarian institution. 

In 1868 there was established the chair of Metaphysics, Logic and Po- 
litical Science, which was filled successively by Gen. Francis A. Shoup» 
Rev. James A. Lyon, D.D, and Rev. J. J. Wheat, D.D, until 1886. In 
1889 the title and scope of the department was again changed so as to 
include the subject of Mental and Moral Philosophy, Logic, History and 
Political Economy. Under this organization the department has con- 
tinued until the present time, with the exception that in 1897 the subject 
of History was severed and made a separate school. 



MATHEMATICS. 

The influence of the United States Military Academy is evident through- 
out the first forty years of the history of the School of Mathematics in the 
University of Mississippi. The comparatively small sections into which 
classes were divided, the text-books used, the character of the curriculum, 
the large amount of individual work on the part of students at the black- 
board, the rigid discipline and thorough training, all bear abundant tes- 
timony to the truth of this assertion. The record of these earlier years 
is altogether honorable. 

The mathematical requirements for admission to the Freshman class 
embraced nothing beyond arithmetic until the end of the first decade 
from the opening of the University in 1848. Then rudimentary Algebra 
was added. After the Civil War the amount of Algebra was materially 
increased, sometimes including Quadratic Equations but more often 
omitting that subject. The standard for entrance was raised again in 
1891 by the addition of three books of Plane Geometry. Since 1906 Alge- 
bra through the Progressions, and all of Plane Geometry have been re- 
quired for admission. Consequently the course of study now is at least 
one year in advance of that before the war. Trigonometry was then in 
the last term of the Sophomore year, its place at present being in the 
Freshman; Analytics was in the Junior, now in the Sophomore; Calculus 
in the Senior, now in the Sophomore and Junior. For many years De- 
scriptive Geometry was a part of the course in pure Mathematics. This 
subject is now offered in the Engineering Department. 

As already suggested, most of the text-books in use until twenty years 
ago bore the stamp of West Point. The works of Davies, Church, Mahan, 
and Bartlett, particularly the first, were favorites. Davies' Bourdon 
and Davies' Legendre, in older and later editions, were continued from 
session to session. In more recent years the text-books given in the fol- 
lowing list have been used. The authors' names appear in the order in 
which their books were introduced. The parentheses denote the one in 
use at present: 

Algebra — Venable, Wentworth, Downey, Hawkes, (Wentworth). 

Geometry — Venable, Wentworth, Bowser, Wells (Wentworth). 



UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 17 

Trigonometry — Wentworth, Bowser, Crockett, Phillips and Strong 
(Wentworth). 

AnalyticalGeometry-Fuckle, Bowser, Hardy, Nichols, Ashton, (Nichols) 

Calculus — Todhunter, Courtenay, Bowser, Hardy, Nicholson, Taylor. 
Nichols, Granville (Osborne). 

In addition to the regular undergraduate work, courses have been given 
to small groups of graduate students in Weld's Determinants, Osborne's 
Examples of Differential Equations, Johnson's Differential Equations, 
Pierce's Newtonian Potential Function, Merriman's Least Squares, Wil- 
liamson's Advanced Calculus, C. Smith's Solid Analytical Geometry, 
Williamson's Dynamics, Bowser's Analytical Mechanics, Routh's Rigid 
Dynamics.

18 UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 

This account of the School of Mathematics would be very unsatisfac- 
tory and incomplete without brief biographical sketches of the men who 
made its history. To record these is a pleasant duty. 

ALBERT TAl'LOR BLEDSOE, M.A., LL.U. 

Born in Kentucky in 1808; appointed to a cadetship in the United 
States Military Academy in 1825 and graduated therefrom in 1830; saw 
military service two years; in 1833 became Professor of Mathematics in 
Kenyon College, Gambler, Ohio; after serving there two years, filled the 
chair of Mathematics in Miami University, and from 1840 to 1S48 prac- 
ticed law in Springfield, Illinois; elected Professor of Mathematics and 
Astronomy in the University of Mississippi in 1848, there being about 
fifty candidates for this position; resigned in 1854 and became Professor 
of Mathematics in the University of Virginia, continuing as such until 
1861; Assistant Secretary of War of the Confederate States; after the 
war resided in Baltimore as editor of the Southern Review, dying in 1877. 

While Bledsoe was a profound mathematician, he was even more a 
theologian and philosopher. His writings fully justify this statement. 
As early as 1845 he published a work entitled "An Examination of Presi- 
dent Edwards on the Will." About ten years later his "Theodicy, or 
Vindication of the Divine Glory" was published. His "Philosophy of 
Mathematics" is of special interest to the student of the calculus. 

It was during Professor Bledsoe's incumbency of the chair of Mathe- 
matics that L. Q. C. Lamar was Adjunct Professor of Mathematics. Sel- 
dom have two such massive and brilliant intellects been so closely asso- 
ciated in the same work. 

FREDERICK A. P. BARNARD, M.A., LL.D., D.D. 

(See Sketches of the Presidents and Chancellors of the University in 
this volume.) 

JORDAN m'CULLOUGH PllirPS, M.A. 

Born in Tennessee October 14, 1828; removed to North Mississippi 
before the Chickasaw cession was organized into counties; was graduated 
from the University of Mississippi in 1851; while studying law in New 
Orleans was appointed, early in 1852, Adjunct Professor of Mathematics 
in the University of Mississippi to fill a vacancy caused by the resignation 
of Hon. L. Q. C. Lamar; was elected to the full professorship of Mathe- 
matics in 1858 and served in that position until the outbreak of the Civil 
War; after the war was an attorney-at-law and Mayor of Oxford, Missis- 
sippi; has practiced law ever since except for three years spent as Chief 
Inspector of Customs of the Port of Key West; present address, Key 
West, Florida. 

CLAUDIUS WISTAB SEARS, M.A. 

Born in Peru, Massachusetts, November 8, 1817; appointed cadet in 
United States Military Academy, West Point, June 30, 1837; graduated 
from West Point June 30. 1841; promoted Second Lieutenant Sth U. S. 



UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 19 

Infantsy; served with his regiment in the Florida War; resigned his 
commission in the U. S. Army October 10, 1842: was instructor of Mathe- 
matics in St. Thomas Hall, Holly Springs, Mississippi, 1844 and 1845; 
was Professor of Mathematics in the University of Louisiana, New Or- 
leans, from 1845 to 1859. 

While a resident of New Orleans, La., he was married to Susan Alice 
Gray, Houston, Texas, August 6, 1853. 

In 1859 he returned to Holly Springs, Mississippi, and was President 
of St. Thomas Hall until 1861, when he enlisted in the Army of the Con- 
federate States and was appointed Captain of Company G, 17th Missis- 
sippi Regiment, June 6, 1861 ; was appointed Colonel of the 46th Missis- 
sippi Regiment December 11, 1862; was appointed Brigadier-General 
March 7, 1864; at the battle of Nashville, December 15, 1864, was severely 
wounded, having a leg shot off. 

Elected Professor of Mathematics in the University of Mississippi in 
1865, in which position he served until June, 1889; died at his residence 
at Oxford, Mississippi, February 15, 1891. 

HENRY AUBREY STRODE, M.A. 

Born in Fredericksburg, Virginia, February 14, 1844; soldier Brax- 
ton's Battery, Fredericksburg Artillery, Confederate States Army, 1861- 
1865. 

After the war attended the University of Virginia where he was awarded 
the Courtenay Medal in mathematics; became Assistant Professor of 
Mathematics at Richmond College, Richmond, Virginia. 

In 1872 established the Kenmore High School at Amherst, Virginia, 
of which he continued as Principal until the year 1889, when he accepted 
the Professorship of Mathematics in the University of Mississippi, which 
he filled during the session 1889-90; during a part of this session was also 
the acting Professor of Chemistry. 

In 1890 he became the first President of Clemson Agricultural College, 
the Agricultural and Mechanical College of South Carolina, and held this 
position until 1893; was also Professor of Mathematics in Clemson Col- 
lege until 1896, when he resigned, because of failing health, and returned 
to Virginia, where he died on September 1, 1898. 

PHYSICS AND ASTRONOMY. 

The School of Physics, originally called Natural Philosophy, was 
one of the first provided for at the University of Mississippi. For sev- 
eral years it was combined with Chemistry. Dr. John Millington, one of 
the four original members of the Faculty, was elected head of this de- 
partment in July, 1848, and reported for duty the 6th of November fol- 
lowing, this being the day designated for the formal opening. 

Dr. Millington was born, reared and educated in England. He worked 
several years in the Royal Institution of London under Michael Faraday 
and Sir Humphrey Davy, and brought over with him a considerable sup- 
ply of physical and chemical apparatus, much of which, especially such 
as was used for original research in Electricity, was of the same kind, 



20 IMIVKU^ITY OF MlSISISSiri'/. 

and possibly the identical patterns used by Faraday and Davy. Many 
pieces of this interesting apparatus, which was purchased from Dr. Mil- 
lington by the University, may yet be seen in the Physical Laboratory, 
marked I. M. for John Millington, the I. before vowels in old print, being 
supplanted by J. in modern print. He was recognized as an elegant and 
scholarly English gentleman, well versed in science both practical and 
theoretical. He was author of a treatise on Mechanics, and also of one 
on Civil Engineering. During his five years of service he never failed to 
secure and retain the respect and even the affection of his classes, as well 
as the unswerving confidence and loyal admiration of his associates and 
neighbors. He resigned in 1853 and was succeeded by Rev. J. C. Keeny, 
who, on request of his class, resigned at the end of his first session. In 
1854 Dr. Frederick Augustus Porter Barnard took charge of Natural 
Philosophy in connection with his Mathematics. On entering upon his 
work he at once proved, by his brilliant lectures and active participation 
in original research, that a master mind was in charge of the science work. 
Realizing that appropriations of money were necessary for building up his 
own, as well as the other departments of the University, he turned a large 
part of his attention to investigating an old claim that the University 
held against the State for lands donated by the Federal Government for 
establishing a seminary fund. He analyzed the claim, made a careful 
calculation of the alleged indebtedness, together with accrued interest, 
and accurately presented the whole matter in a public address before the 
Mississippi Legislature. The result was ultimately libera! appropria- 
tions to the University, sufficient to add several new buildings and to 
make a large increase in apparatus and general equipments. In 1856 he 
was elected President of the University to succeed Augustus B. Long- 
street, resigned. Three years after his election the title was changed 
from President to that of Chancellor. Dr. Barnard possessed many 
eminent qualities as chief executive, but as his service as Chancellor are 
described in another part of this book I shall not further pursue the 
subject here, but refer the reader for details to that article. 

The University closed its doors for four years during the war, from 
June, 1861, to October, 1865. Doubtless the buildings had been spared 
by the Federal troops through the personal influence of Dr. Barnard with 
General Grant. 

October the 25th, 1865, General Francis Asbury Shoup was elected 
Professor of Physics, Astronomy and Civil Engineering. This heavy 
work he did with credit till January, 1867, when he was relieved of Physics 
and Astronomy, but continued the other work till 1868, when he was offered 
the new chair of Metaphysics, Aesthetics, Logic and Political Philosophy. 
This he accepted, but the following year he resigned and left, much to 
the regret of the authorities of the University. I am indebted to his wife 
for the facts in the following brief sketch: 

Francis Asbury Shoup was born in Connersville, Indiana, the 22d of 
March, 1835; graduated at West Point in 1856; commissioned immed- 
iately as Lieutenant and sent in command of artillery to Sullivan's Island, 
South Carolina. In 1839 he resigned and returned to his home in Indian- 



UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 21 

apolis, intending to practice law. Owing to excitement caused by the 
John Brown Raid, he was enthusiastically elected and served as Captain 
of Zouaves from Indianapolis. His love and admiration, however, for the 
South impelled him, in 1860, to resign his Federal commission and tender 
his services, early the next year, to the newly formed Confederate Govern- 
ment at Montgomery, Alabama. He was commissioned Major in the 
Corps of Engineers and assigned to duty first in Mobile, later in the Trans- 
Mississippi Department, and finally in Vicksburg. After the siege and 
fall of Vicksburg, he was commissioned Brigadier-General, and served 
with General Joseph E. Johnston in the famous Dalton Campaign. His 
fortifications around Atlanta and his redoubts on the Chattahoochee 
were pronounced a remarkable feat in engineering. 

As stated above he was elected Professor in the University of Missis- 
sippi at its reorganization after the war. In 1868 he took orders in the 
Episcopal Church and was ordained Priest by Bishop Green. He served 
St. Peter's Church in Oxford as Rector, in addition to his regular duties 
as Professor in the University. In 1869 he was elected Professor of Mathe- 
matics in the University of the South at Sewanee, Tennessee. This he 
accepted after giving four years of most efficient service to the University 
of Mississippi. In his new chair he continued to grow in usefulness and 
reputation, becoming the author of a valuable treatise on Algebra and a 
very popular work on Psychology. He died in 1896, loved and admired 
by all who knew him. As a mark of respect, the Daughters of the Con- 
federacy have erected a granite shaft over his grave. 

Dr. Landon Cabell Garland was elected January the 21st, 1867, to the 
chair of Theoretical Physics and of Astronomy. He had been for some 
years previous to the war and during its continuance. President of the 
University of Alabama. Being, however, a close student of science, he 
was pleased to have simply a professorship in his favorite field of research 
and to be free from the perplexing administrative duties of President. 
Having the duties of two chairs upon him, however, he was not given 
time or opportunity for extensive research. He was noted as a lucid and 
very attractive lecturer before his classes, as well as a most scholarly and 
cultured Southern gentleman. His influence in the university commu- 
nity was measured not alone by his scholarship, which was recognized by 
all as being of the highest type, but also by the magnetic personality of 
the man as a citizen, a neighbor and a friend. His example of upright 
living, dignity of bearing, cordiality in friendship, urbanity toward strang- 
ers, his fairness, truthfulness, and honesty in every kind of dealing, his 
devotion to his own church and liberality toward all other churches, his 
hospitality in his home as the head of a most cultured, elegant and pious 
family, his scrupulous concern for his own professional and private affairs, 
and his absolute non-participation in those of others, his splendid equi- 
poise of temperament — never sportive — never gloomy — all these and 
many other virtues made his presence a comfort to his friends and a bene- 
faction to the community. During the session of 1874-75 he was elected 
Chancellor of the new Vanderbilt University. Certain of our Faculty 
agreed to an exchange of hours so as to enable him to finish his course by

the first of April, as he was under promise to start about that time to 
Europe to purchase physical and chemical apparatus for the Vanderbilt 
University to be in readiness for the opening in the following autumn. 
Before his departure the Methodist congregation asked him to deliver a 
farewell address to the young men of the town and of the University in 
the M. E. Church. He consented, and chose as his subject Psalms 119:9, 
"Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? By taking heed thereto 
according to thy word." Few farewell addresses, I presume, have ever 
been delivered that left more lasting impressions or more tender memo- 
ries. Thus Dr. Garland left Mississippi as admirable in character as he 
was brilliant in intellect. 

The following is a more accurate sketch from the pen of his daughter, 
Mrs. Rose G. Lewis, of Tuscaloosa, Alabama: 

"Landon Cabell Garland was born at his father's home, known as 'The 
Grove,' in Nelson County, Virginia, on the 21st of March, 1810. He came 
from a long line of distinguished ancestry on both his father's and his 
mother's side. He was the son of Spotswood Garland, a lawyer and Clerk 
of the Court of Nelson County for more than forty years— a grandson of 
Capt. James Garland, an officer in the Revolutionary army. An earlier 
ancestor was 'Warden of the Cinque Ports,' one of the highest and most 
important offices in the gift of the English King. His mother was Lu- 
cinda Rose, daughter of Hugh Rose, of Geddes, a son of the celebrated 
Dr. Robert Rose, who came from Scotland to America in 1725. 

"He was sent to the best preparatory schools which the country afford- 
ed, and entered the Sophomore class at Hampden-Sidney College, Vir- 
ginia, in October, 1826. In all departments of learning he took the highest 
rank and graduated with first honor in a large and talented class. His 
father's intention was to send him to a law school, but he had exhibited 
such a tatse for mathematical and scientific pursuits, and had made such 
large attainments in Chemistry beyond the ordinary course of college 
instruction as to warrant his friend, Dr. John H. Price, President of the 
Union Theological Seminary, who had been cognizant of his rare scien- 
tific ability, to recommend his appointment to the tutorship of Chemistry 
in Washington College, located at Lexington, Virginia. This was done 
without Mr. Garland's knowledge, and a week or two before he graduated. 
Being but nineteen years of age, he felt it his duty to submit the matter 
to the decision of his father. His father consented to the acceptance of 
the appointment, provided that after two or three years he should turn 
his attention to the law. Accordingly he went to Lexington in Novem- 
ber, 1829. The manner in which he discharged the duties of his office 
gave such satisfaction to the Board of Trustees that at the expiration of 
the scholastic year he was unanimously elected Professor of Chemistry 
and Natural Philosophy. This appointment changed his destiny in life. 
Becoming more and more wedded to the sciences, with each returning 
year, he finally abandoned all idea of making law his profession, and de- 
voted himself to the business of collegiate instruction. 

"While Mr. Garland expended his labor chiefly upon the mathematics, 
pure and mixed, and the sciences of Chemistry, Geology and Botany, he 



UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 23 

was assiduous in the cultivation of languages, and used the Latin and 
Greek and several modern languages in the prosecution of his professional 
studies. He valued the Greek language chiefly for the original study of 
the New Testament, and in time attained to very considerable distinction 
as a biblical critic. This is attested by his contributions to the current 
religious literature of the day. (See sketch by Dr. Charles Foster Smith 
and others.) 

"Mr. Garland was brought up in sympathy with the Methodist Church, 
of which both his parents were members. When Randolph-Macon Col- 
lege was put in operation during the winter of 1833-34, Mr. Garland was 
unanimously elected to the chair of Natural Philosophy and Chemistry. 
His inclinations all led him to remain at Lexington. His situation was 
entirely agreeable, and he had won the esteem and confidence of that 
community. But, impelled by a sense of duty to the Church of his father 
and mother, he accepted the situation to which the Church had called 
him, with a much smaller salary than he had been receiving. There was 
no class at the organization of the institution in the department of Nat- 
ural Philosophy and Chemistry, but as the Professor-elect of Ancient 
Languages could not attend during the first session of the scholastic year, 
Mr. Garland discharged all the duties of this chair with an ability that 
showed that he was as much at home in philology as he was in science. 
On December the 29th, 1835, he was married to Louisa Francis Garland 
(a third cousin), daughter of David S. Garland and his wife, Jane Henry 
Meredith, a niece of Patrick Henry, the statesman and orator. The 
health of Dr. Olin, the President of Randolph-Macon, was so feeble as to 
induce his physicians to recommend a European tour. He obtained from 
the Board of Trustees an indefinite leave of absence, recommending to 
them to invest Mr. Garland, though the youngest of the Faculty, with 
the responsibility of the Vice-Presidency of the institution. 

"After Dr. Olin's return to America, considering a Southern climate 
unfavorable to his health, he resigned the presidency of Randolph-Macon, 
whereupon the board unanimously elected Mr. Garland to the office 
His duties were very onerous and taxing, and while he faithfully dis- 
charged them, he undertook the preparation of a series of mathematical 
text-books, doing most of the work at night. All this combined to some- 
what undermine a naturally good constitution, and in the fall of 1846 he 
resigned his position with the intention of practicing law. To prepare 
for this profession he returned to his father's house, who was then living 
in Lovingston, Nelson County, Virginia, and turned the whole energy of 
his disciplined mind to the study of law. He possessed a fine voice and 
oratorical power, and, no doubt, would have soon risen to the height of 
this profession. But the institutions of the country could not spare from 
the difficult and delicate work of collegiate training one who had proved 
himself so eminently fitted for it. The venerable college of William and 
Mary made an effort to secure his services as President, and other insti- 
tutions did the same thing. However, before he had entered upon the 
practice of law he was invited to the chair of English Literature, Rhet- 
oric and History in the University of Alabama. Thither he removed in

the winter of 1847-48. A year or two after his connection with the Uni- 
versity, the chair of Mathematics (pure and mixed) became vacant, to 
which, at his own request, he was transferred. In this chair his services 
were eminently useful, until about the year 1854 the President of the Uni- 
versity, Dr. Basil Manly, retired on account of ill health, whereupon Dr. 
Garland was elected to fill his place. This threw upon him the duty of 
lecturing on Mental and Moral and Political Philosophy. Upon these 
studies Dr. Garland entered with great energy and untiring zeal, and 
regretted that he had not at an earlier period given these subjects the 
large attention he was then enabled to give. He considered them the 
most useful in the culture of the mind. Dr. Garland continued his con- 
nection with the University of Alabama, as its President, up to the time 
of its destruction by the raiding party of General Croxton, April, 1865. 
The Faculty scattered in various directions, but his services were re- 
tained for about a year, to raise a fund with which to rebuild the univer- 
sity. He was then called to the chair of Physics and Astronomy in the 
University of Mississippi. Here he remained till he could see the ardent 
desire of all his mature years about to be fulfilled, the founding of a great 
Southern University in deed, as well as in name, where the young men of 
the South could obtain, at small cost, the best facilities in all branches of 
learning and useful arts, especially in a preparation for the ministry. 
He believed in an educated ministry. As soon as he was made Chancellor 
of this new university in 1875, he went to Europe, where he spent nearly 
two years in studying and having made the most approved apparatus for 
the various scientific departments, Physics, Astronomy, Chemistry, etc. 

"This short and imperfect sketch will close with an extract from a 
memorial address by Capt. Richard Irby, of Randolph-Macon College: 

" 'When the Vanderbilt University was founded the President of its 
Board of Trust, the late Bishop McTyeire, one of his pupils at Randolph- 
Macon, at once sought Dr. Garland to take charge of the University, 
knowing full well his eminent qualifications for the task. Here Dr. Gar- 
land had a field worthy of his ability and experience. He and Bishop 
McTyeire had for years wrought together as father and son, zealously 
and effectively in the establishment of a great Christian University. In 
the order of Providence the Bishop was the first to be taken away by death, 
but in this field of his last and best endeavor. Dr. Garland was permitted 
to live and spend the evening of his useful life under the shadow of the 
stately halls he had seen rise from the earth and in the shade of the beau- 
tiful trees which had been planted and nursed by his former pupil. And 
here, at the ripe age of four score and four years, with a heart full of love 
to God and still yearning to do what he could for the youn;.^ men of his 
country, "he ceased at once to work and to live." ' (February 13, 1895.) 

"His remains lie entombed in a beautiful spot on the campus of Van- 
derbilt University under the loving care of those who will always honor 
and revere his name." 

Dr. Garland was succeeded, in the University of Mississippi, in 1875, 
by his son-in-law, Robert Burwell Fulton, who had been Adjunct Pro- 
fessor in the department for several years. Professor Fulton had gradu- 



UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 25 

ated with first honor in the class of 1869, and therefore brought to the 
department not only great intellectuality, but also great ambition and 
skillful devotion to science. He took hold with zeal both to improve the 
department and to advance science. Want of funds, at the same time, was 
a hindrance difficult to overcome. The policy of the trustees was rather 
toward establishing new departments than developing to high efficiency 
the old ones. Utilizing as best he could the small funds available and the 
campus laborers, he added to the equipments, enlarged the rooms and 
developed special arrangements for introducing laboratory work along 
with theoretical work. The design and execution of these good intentions 
were, in their very incipiency, seriously embarrassed by the poor prepa- 
ration of students entering the University. The work had to be very 
elementary to make any progress at all. In the department of Astron- 
omy he succeeded in securing an appropriation for a new telescope, which, 
however, was not received till 1893, after he had been elected Chancellor, 
which occurred in January, 1892. As his duties increased in the Chan- 
cellor's office, while retaining the title of Professor of Physics and As- 
tronomy, he abandoned all teaching except that of Astronomy. In the 
broader field of power, incident to his high office, his greatest services to 
the University of Mississippi were accomplished. But as a more detailed 
sketch of his life and work is given along with the other Chancellors, in 
other parts of this work, further details will be omitted here. 

In 1899, after serving several years as Associate Professor of Physics, 
Dr. John Wesley Johnson was elected Professor of Physics, Chancellor 
Fulton still retaining the Astronomy. In 1907 Astronomy was again 
combined with Physics, and is so retained at present. In 1900 Electricity 
was separated from Physics, and Professor Douglas Anderson, from Tu- 
lane University, Louisiana, was elected Professor of Electricity and Elec- 
trical Engineering. He served only one year and was succeeded by Pro- 
fessor Arthur W. Smith, also from Tulane. He likewise served only one 
year, when Electricity was again combined with Physics, and Assistant 
Professor Eugene Campbell was transferred from the School of Chemistry 
to Physics and placed in charge of Electricity. The following year, 1903, 
the head of the department recommended that Electricity be separated 
from Physics and assigned to Professor Eugene Campbell. These rec- 
ommendations were approved, and the general oversight of the electrical 
plant and waterworks was also assigned to Professor Campbell. In 1906 
it was recommended that Hydraulics be separated from Physics and made 
a part of Civil Engineering. Physics being thus relieved of both Elec- 
tricity and Hydraulics began at once to afford better opportunity for 
specializing in its own distinctive work. 

A further notice is due Professor Eugene Campbell, who was born Oc- 
tober 28, 1870, in Giles County, Tennessee, but reared in Mississippi. 
After attending the public schools as long as they were profitable to him, 
he entered at Lexington, Kentucky as a student, finishing the course 
there in 1890. On his return he engaged in teaching; was married June 
4, 1893, to Miss Lucy Morrow, of Pontotoc County; moved with his wife 
to Oxford and entered the University in 189.5, graduating in 1897, and

taking his M.A. degree in 1900. In his senior year he was employed as 
fellow and advanced to Assistant in Chemistry immediately after gradu- 
ation. In 1902 he was transferred to Physics and given charge of Elec- 
tricity. In 1903 Electricity and Electrical Engineering, together with 
the general management of the electrical and heating plant, were assigned 
him as a separate department. In this he was doing excellent work till 
he was smitten down by typhoid fever and died August 21, 1906. He 
was a man of more than ordinary ability as well as of great moral worth, 
and was rapidly rising in his profession and in usefulness when the dark 
messenger of Death took him away. 



LATIN. 

OEGANIZATION. 

The organization of this school is coincident with the establishment 
of the University. In the autum of 1848 when the doors of the Institu- 
tion were opened for the admission of students, they found a competent 
instructor in the classics, who, with three co-laborers, constituted the 
original faculty. The Board of Trustees had previously decided that the 
newly established seminary for learning should have a standard as good 
as the best. * The resolution which decided this important issue was pro- 
posed by General John A. Quitman, who, as a member of the first Board 
of Trustees of the University, did yeoman service in her behalf. 

The requirements for admission in Latin were: "Five books of Caesar, 
the Eclogues and six books of the Aeneid of Vergil, Cicero's Orations." 
"The candidate must be well versed in the Latin Grammar, including 
Latin Prosody." - 

The original course of study planned contemplated three years of col- 
lege Latin as follows: "Freshman — Livy, Ovid — with antiquities, Latin 
composition and Prosody. 

"Sophomore — Horace, Tacitus, Juvenal and Persius, with antiquities, 
etc., as above. 

"Junior — Cicero de Oratore, de Senectute or Amicitia, with antiqui- 
ties, etc., as above."' 

Three years of Latin were required for the Bachelor of Arts degree. 

The graduate who desired a more advanced degree might obtain it by 
advanced work in this and other schools of the University, but only on 
the following terms: "The degree of Master of Arts shall not be con- 
ferred until two years after the degree of Bachelor of Arts, and to obtain 
it a regular course of satisfactory studies in each Department will be 
required." * 



1 Resolved, "That the qualifications for admission into the several classes will be substan- 
tially such as are required in the best regulated universities in the United States." Minutes of 
the Trustees, Vol. 1, p. 63. » Ibid. p. 89. » Ibid. p. 92. ♦ Ibid. p. 93. 



UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 27 

ANTE-BEIXUM PEBIOD. 

The first Professor of Latin in the University was the Rev. John New- 
ton Waddel, D.D. He was sprung from excellent lineage, his father be- 
ing the Rev. Moses Waddel, D.D., who for a number of years was master 
of a famous classical school in Willington, South Carolina. He num- 
bered as his pupils John C. Calhoun, William S. Crawford, Hugh S. Legare, 
Judge A. B. Longstreet and many others, who afterwards in church and 
state won distinction. In 1819 Dr. Waddel accepted the presidency of 
the University of Georgia, and remained at the head of this institution 
until 1829. In this year the son graduated at the early age of seventeen. 
Professor Waddel was prepared for college in a grammar school located 
on the college campus. He was introduced to the Latin grammar at the 
early age of eight, and when he entered college was already well grounded 
in the classics. His teacher was Mr. Moses W. Dobbins, a cousin, who 
had been taught by his father. At the University he took a good stand 
in a strong class, and upon his graduation devoted himself to teaching, 
first in South Carolina, then in Alabama, and finally in 1841 he removed 
to Mississippi and settled in Jasper County. Here he established Mont- 
rose Academy, one of the earliest classical schools in the State. The 
school prospered, and the success which attended his labors here paved 
the way to his subsequent election to the Chair of Ancient Languages in 
the University. It was shortly after his settlement in Mississippi that 
he decided that he would undertake the work of the Christian ministry, 
and having read theology privately, he was duly examined and licensed 
to preach. Upon the organization of the University Mr. Waddel was 
chosen a member of its first Board of Trustees, and as a member of the 
committee on courses of study was, in a large measure, responsible for the 
curriculum of the institution. He resigned his position on the Board and 
was elected Professor of Ancient Languages. ^ Professor Waddel remained 
a member of the faculty until 1857. He was at this time so strongly urged 
to accept the Chair of Ancient Languages in the Synodical College at La 
Grange, Tenn., that finally thinking it the call of duty he, with much 
reluctance, tendered his resignation as a member of the University fac- 
ulty and undertook his new work. This institution was destroyed by the 
Civil War. Dr. Waddel was elected Chancellor of the University in 1865 
and steered the institution safely through the dark days of reconstruction. 
In 1874 he resigned the chancellorship of the University and shortly after- 
wards was elected to the chancellorship of the Southwestern University 
at Clarksville, Tenn. After a number of years of useful service there he 



•"When I received from the Secretary of the Board, Col. Williams, the ofRcial notification 
of my election, I learned that the title of the chair I was expected to fill was 'Professor of Greek, 
Latin, Hebrew, French, German and Spanish.' No sooner had I read the statement than I at 
once decided to decline the offer, and I wrote the Secretary to that effect and asked for an explan- 
ation. In his reply he wrote that I would not be expected to give instruction in any languages 
except Greek and Latin. He gave as the reason for the addition of the other names to the title 
of the professorship that the Board desired to have it publicly understood that a department of 
language was contemplated in the system of instruction when complete, but that the amount 
of available means at the control of the University was inadequate as yet to admit of such an 
extension." — Memorials of Academic Life, Waddel, p. 255.

retired, spending his last years in quiet and study. His memoirs, written 
by him during this period, reveal to us a useful and well-spent life. As 
a teacher Dr. Waddel was eminently successful. He combined sound 
scholarship and the student's love for study with the ability to impart 
his learning to others. He insisted upon a thorough mastery of the ele- 
ments of the language; a power to be acquired only by a study of the gram- 
mar and by Latin writing as well as extensive reading. He scorned for 
his pupils and for himself meretricious helps. The courses offered in 
Latin by him were in substantial agreement with those originally referred 
to, but it seemed wiser to postpone the reading of Juvenal until the Junior 
year, and this he did. The important position that Latin has held in the 
curriculum of this institution is in large measure due to the wisdom and 
learning of the first occupant of the chair. 

In 1856 the Chair of Ancient Languages was divided, and Professor 
Waddel choosing to retain the Greek, Professor Wilson G. Richardson, 
A.M., succeeded him as Professor of Latin. Mr. Richardson was a grad- 
uate of the University of Alabama, and had served his alma mater as a tutor. 
He subsequently studied in Rome, Berlin and Paris, and brought to the 
work excellent preparation, sound scholarship and enthusiasm for his 
subject. The standard for admission was now raised by the additional 
requirement of the Georgics of Vergil and three books of Ovid's Meta- 
morphoses. This added requirement made more extended reading in the 
college course possible. He thus expressed his views of the work that 
his department should perform: "The history of this remarkable people, 
the state of the arts among them, their domestic life, public and private 
usages, their mythology, laws, education, geography and antiquities are 
severally developed in expounding Roman authors. Latin is not taught 
as an isolated language, but in its various and important relations to 
other tongues. The influence of the Greek language upon the Latin is 
noted and the Latin upon the modern tongues, with especial reference 
above all to its bearing upon our vernacular. Everything is made sub- 
servient to thorough English scholarship."' He emphasized the struc- 
tural side of the language, and urged the importance of storing the memory 
with choice passages from the Latin writers. The Satires and Epistles 
of Horace were now given in the Freshman year, - and in the Sophomore 
systematic instruction in Roman history. 

At their June meeting in 1S60 the Board of Trustees elected Professor 
"Alexandre J. Quinche to succeed Professor Richardson, who resigned dur- 
ing the previous session. ' The newly elected professor was of Swiss- 
Huguenot parentage, but was a native of Minnesota, being born at Fort 
Snelling in the year 1S29. He received his collegiate education at the 
Columbian University, Washington, D. C, and some years after his grad- 
uation was elected a member of the teaching stafT of his alma mater. After 
a single year of satisfactory service at the University of Mississippi, with 
other members of the faculty, he tendered his resignation, as the Civil 
War had rendered it inadvisable to attempt to continue the work at the

College, Texas, and late in life entered the ministry.

University. But he remained on the campus, and during a portion of 
this time he conducted a school under the authority of the Board, having 
as his associate Burton Harrison, Esq., subsequently secretary to Presi- 
dent Davis. He was made custodian of the University buildings, and 
probably saved them from destruction at the hands of the federals. • 

POST-BELLUM PERIOD. 

When the University was reopened, in 1865, Professor Quinche was 
re-elected to the chair of Latin, and continued to fill this position for 
twenty-four years. His death occurred in August, 1889. 

Dr. Quinche was a faithful teacher, and to the end of his life was a close 
student of the Latin language. But the old order had passed away and 
the School of Latin suffered with the others. There were few schools in 
the State to take the place of the many private schools where young men 
had received adequate preparation prior to the Civil War. The public 
High School was yet undeveloped. The catalogue no longer required a 
standard for admission that could not be met. First it was announced 
that four books of Vergil would be required for admission, the require- 
ments in Caesar and Cicero remaining unchanged. 

In 1880 the admission requirement was further reduced to two books 
of Caesar, two Orations of Cicero and two books of the Aeneid of Vergil. 

For some years a Senior course was offered, extending through half 
the session, and this course compensated, in a measure, for the less effi- 
cient preparation. Beginning with 1887 the work in Latin was limited to 
the Freshman and Sophomore years. Dr. Quinche filled the chair for a 
longer period than any other occupant, and it was his good fortune to have 
under his instruction during this period many young men who have since 
attained positions of eminence in the State and Nation. Of this number 
are the present chief justice of the State, a member of the National Senate 
a bishop in the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, and the three last 
chancellors of the University. An examination of the University cata- 
logues of the period reveals the fact that Dr. Quinche introduced the best 
text-books as they appeared, and, further, outlined a course for the Mas- 
ter of Arts degree. 

THE SCHOOL UNDER PROFESSOR HOGITE. 

Professor Addison Hogue succeeded Dr. Quinche in this school. ^ He 
had for some years been at the head of the School of Greek, and in 1889 
the two chairs were combined. During this period the requirements for 
admission were: Two books of Caesar and two Orations of Cicero, with 
corresponding work in Grammar and Latin writing. The course extended 
through only two years, but forms, syntax, Latin writing, and the read- 
ing of considerable portions of Cicero, Vergil, Livy and Horace were un- 
dertaken, and in addition Roman history and Roman religion were studied. 

'Dr. Quinche had lived in Illinois, where he had been associated with the relatives of Gen- 
eral Grant. As a result he was enabled to have General Grant, who was the first Union General 
to enter Oxford, put a guard around the University buildings, and this protection was continued 
throughout the war.

This work was so effectually done that at the end of the two years' course 
the student was well prepared for more advanced work in this field. Thor- 
oughness was the Professor's watchword. Graduate work was given more 
emphasis than ever before. 

Professor Hogue is an able scholar, and was a strong and inspiring 
teacher. He left a lasting impression at the University, though he was 
at the head of this school for only a short time. 



THE KECENT HISTORY OF THE SCHOOI.. 

Professor Alexander L. Bondurant, A.M., was placed in charge of the 
school upon the resignation of Professor Hogue, which occurred in June, 
1893. 1 Mr. Bondurant had been connected with the work in classics for 
some years previously. He now found a school well organized, and pos- 
sessing sound traditions with reference to the subject to be taught, so the 
problem that presented itself was to develop, broaden and enlarge the work 
already so admirably begun. From the beginning there has been kept 
constantly in mind and presented to the students as sufficient reasons 
to justify the study of this subject its disciplinary value, the aid which it 
affords in the mastery of English and the Romanic languages, and finally 
the value of the study as an end in itself by reason of its noble literature, 
and because through it one learns to know the laws and life of the greatest 
people of antiquity. 

In developing the work, admission requirements, undergraduate, and 
graduate courses, and equipment have been considered. It was thought 
that no thoroughly satisfactory results could be obtained that did not 
take into consideration each of these as important factors. The stan- 
dard for admission in Latin was first raised to a minimum requirement 
of four books of Caesar and four orations of Cicero, with corresponding 
work in Grammar and Latin Writing. The standard has been further 
raised by adding two additional orations of Cicero and six books of Vergil. ^ 
This means that four years of high school work are required. 

The undergraduate courses have been extended from year to year until 
at present fourteen courses extending through four years are given in lieu 
of four courses extending through two years. These additional courses 
include Methods of Teaching Latin, Private Antiquities, Roman Religion, 
advanced Composition, reading courses in Roman comedy, elegy, the 
later satirists, Tacitus, Catullus and Pliny.^ 

The growth in numbers in the school has been commensurate with the 
growth of the University. In 1S94 the number enrolled in Latin by classes 
was 70, for 1909-10, it is IGO. The Freshman class is now divided into three 
sections and the Sophomore into two. At the beginning of the present 
period all the work of the school was done by a single professor, now there 
are two men, a professor and assistant professor, giving their whole time 
to the work, and an additional assistant, who gives five hours a week. 
Two years of Latin are required for the A.B. degree, but 84 per cent of

UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 31 

those taking a bachelor's degree of any character whatsoever, exclusive 
of law, between 1893-1908, have included Latin in their course. All the 
Rhodes scholars sent from this State have taken Latin at the University, 
and only one student has passed the examination who has not studied 
here. On the second examination only one State, New York, had more 
students to pass the examination than Mississippi, and on the third exam- 
ination this State led all the Southern States. During this period a num- 
ber of books have been added to the Latin library, and a number of pic- 
tures and slides acquired. 

Considerable emphasis has been placed upon graduate work and ad- 
vanced courses have been offered in Lucretius, Roman Comedy, Roman 
Antiquities, and Ovid. A number of those who have completed this 
work have since engaged in teaching Latin. 

In addition to the Professors already named the department has had 
connected with it the following:

GREEK. 

The records show that the importance of Greek, both as disciplinary 
and cultural, has been recognized in the University of Mississippi from 
its foundation. The chair has been filled by men eminent as scholars and 
as teachers, as may be seen from the list below: 

John H. Waddell, D.D., Professor of Greek 1848-1857 

Henry Whitehorne, M.A., Professor of Greek 1857-1861 

J. J. Wheat, M.A., Professor of Greek 1865-1886 

A. H. Whitfield, M.A.. Adjunct Professor of Greek.. 1872-1874 

Addison Hogue, M.A., Professor of Greek 1886-1893 

A. L. Bondurant, M.A., Professor of Greek 1893-1895 

P. H. Saunders, Ph.D., Professor of Greek 1895-1905 

J. G. Deupree, M.A., LL.D., Professor of Greek. . 1905- 

Dr. Saunders was born and educated in Mississippi, taking at the Uni- 
versity the degrees of B.A., M.A., and Ph.D. He is now President of the 
Commercial Bank and Trust Co., Laurel, Miss. 



32 UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 

Prof. A. L. Bondurant has continuously held the chair of Latin in the 
University, since Greek and Latin were separated in 1895. 

Prof. Addison Hogue, since 1893, has filled the chair of Greek in Wash- 
ington and Lee University, Virginia. 

Prof. A. H. Whitfield, after resigning the chair of Greek, practiced law 
in Mississippi, was Professor of Law in the University, and has been for 
years upon the Supreme Bench, being now Chief Justice of this State. 

The others in the list just given have been summoned to the school 
above 

When the Board of Trustees, on the recommendation of the Faculty, 
abolished the Preparatory Department in 1892, it was deemed advisable 
to assign to Greek a position in the curriculum later than heretofore. A 
student who had not studied Greek was to be permitted to begin the sub- 
ject at the University, provided he ranked not below Freshman in Latin. 

Early in the fall of 1895 Dr. P. H. Saunders, as Professor of Greek, 
undertook to raise the standard so as to make the course in Greek com- 
mensurate in extent and advancement with that offered in other depart- 
ments. The University authorities officially confirmed this action by 
joining the Association of Colleges and Preparatory Schools of the South- 
ern States, one of the requirements for which was that a fair knowledge 
of forms and syntax, and at least three books of the Anabasis, should be 
required for entrance to the Freshman Greek class. This was about the 
scope of the advance before decided upon. The schools of the State were 
informed of the intended change, and were requested to introduce Greek 
if practicable. 

The correspondence course, offered by the indefatigable professor, 
was a phenomenal success from its inception. Many ambitious teachers 
thus prepared themselves to teach Greek, and as a consequence about 
forty schools in Mississippi now have Greek in their courses of study, 
and the standard has been so raised as to justify the following: 

ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS. 

The requirements for admission to the Freshman class will hereafter 
be a beginner's Greek book and four books of the Anabasis.

METHOD OF IN8TBUCTION. 

First Year. — The work of this year is in part devoted to a thorough and 
persistent drill on the inflections and in the elementary principles of syn- 
tax. Accuracy in form and accent is cultivated by the constant use of 
the blackboard and a correct pronunciation is secured by reading the 
accented forms from the board. Translation of English into Greek is 
practiced each day. The English sentences are given out on slips of paper, 
and the equivalent Greek is put upon the blackboard by the students. 
From fifteen to thirty lines are assigned for translation. Each student is 
given work each day. 
3 



34 UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 

Second Year. — In the Sophomore year the drill in inflections continues 
the principal parts of the most important irregular verbs are learned, and 
the rules of syntax are impressed by frequent questioning and by written 
exercises. A careful study of the geography of Greece is made, and the 
location and contour of important countries is impressed by map draw- 
ing. From thirty to fifty lines are assigned for translation, and sight read- 
ing is conimually practiced and encouraged. 

Third Year. — The same general plan of thorough drill in forms and syn- 
tax is followed here, though not so much time is given to it. Translation 
is emphasized and metrical reading is practiced. 

Collateral reading from books to be found in the University library 
will be assigned each class. 

Each student should have a Liddell and Scott's Greek-English Lexicon 
(abridged), and a good hand-book of mythology. 

With the courses above offered it is interesting to compare the follow- 
ing as given in the catalogue of 1852-53:

ROMANCE LANGUAGES. 

{See also Germanic Languages and Latin.) 

The Romance Languages belonged to the School of Modern Languages 
until 1905. Work in Modern Languages in the University of Mississippi 
was begun in the third year of its existence. Adolph Sadluski was elected 
Assistant Professor of Modern Languages in July, 1850, but as he did not 
appear for service the chair was declared vacant on the 29th of October, 
1850. 

William A. Strozzi, A.M., took charge of the work in 1850 (or 1851) and 
continued in charge until 1854. Dr. Waddel, in his Memorials of Academic 
Life (p. 305), says: "Sadluski was succeeded by a very unsuitable man, by 
name William A. Strozzi, also a foreigner, who was in office only two years. 
Both of these men came recommended as competent for the position, 
but perhaps there have rarely been found such complete failures as they 
both proved to be." 

Professor Strozzi was succeeded by Wilson Gaines Richardson, A.M., 
who served to 1860. During the last four years of this period Professor 



UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 35 

Richardson held also the chair of Latin. He had enjoyed the advantages 
of classical study at Berlin and Rome, and had spent nearly two years in 
Paris. French and Spanish were the languages taught. "The method of 
instruction in these languages is substantially the same as set forth for 
Latin." "In Spanish the course is quite limited." (Catalogue.) Tick- 
nor's History of Spanish Literature is one of the text-books put down in 
the catalogue. 

Alexandre James Quinche, M.A., was the next professor in this de- 
partment', holding the chair (along with Latin) for the year 1860-1861, 
and again for the first year after the resumption of university work at the 
close of the Civil War, 1865-1866. Dr. Quinche was born of Swiss parents 
at Fort Snelling, Minn., January 27, 1827. His boyhood was spent at 
Galena, 111., and his higher education obtained at the University of the 
City of New York, and at Columbian University, Washington, D. C. 
During the Civil War Professor Quinche was left in charge of the Univer- 
sity property, and on account of the acquaintance of his family with Gen- 
eral Grant's, formed at Galena, he was able to save the buildings and 
collections. 

In 186&-67 Dabney Minor Scales had charge of the department, Pro- 
fessor Quinche remaining in charge of Latin. French and Spanish were 
the languages taught, and were confined to the Junior and Senior years. 

From 1867 to 1872 Professor Quinche again had charge of Modern Lan- 
guages in addition to his duties as Professor of Latin. The last two years 
of this period he was acting Professor of Modern Languages, the profes- 
sorship being vacant. 

In 1872 Frederick A. Juny, S.T.D., took charge of the work and re- 
mained till 1876. Professor Juny was an Alsatian, who had at one time 
been a Roman Catholic priest, but was at this time an Episcopal clergy- 
man. German appears to have been given for the first time during his 
occupancy. 

Professor Quinche again assumed the responsibilities of the chair of 
Modern Languages in 1876 and held the position till 1881, continuing to 
serve as Professor of Latin all the while. Only French was given during 
this period. 

In 1881 Charles Woodward Hutson, a South Carolinian by birth, be- 
came Instructor and in 1884 Professor of Modern Languages, continuing 
in office till 1889. French and German were regularly given, but there 
was no demand for Spanish. Professor Hutson had formerly been Pro- 
fessor of Greek in Louisiana State University, and was later Professor of 
History in the A. & M. College of Texas. He is the author of a History 
of French Literature and a Story of Language. (See Who's Who in America.) 
His present address is New Orleans, La. 

Joseph Auguste Fontaine, Ph.D., succeeded Pro|essor Hutson, hold- 
ing the Chair of Modern Languages for two years, 1889-91. Professor 
Fontaine is a Frenchman. He went from Mississippi to Bryn Mawr, 
where from 1891 to 1900 he was Associate Professor of Romance Languages. 
Later he returned to France. He is editor of Merimee's Colomba. 

The next occupant, Hans Schmidt-Wartenberg, Ph.D., likewise re- 



36 UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 

mained two years, 1891-93. Dr. Schmidt-Wartenberg is a German. He 
went from Mississippi to the University of Chicago. 

Chiles Clifton Ferrell, A.M., Ph.D., succeeded Dr. Schmidt-Warten- 
berg in 1893, and continued Professor of Modern Languages till 1905, 
when the chair was divided between him and Calvin S. Brown, Dr. Ferrell 
retaining the Germanic Languages and Dr. Brown taking the Romance. 
Spanish was revived in 1901-02, after having been out of the curriculum 
for many years. Dr. Ferrell was born in South Carolina, spent his boy- 
hood in Kentucky, took his Master's degree at Vanderbilt and his Doc- 
tor's at Leipsig. (See Who's Who in America.) His present address is 
Birmingham, Ala. 

During the spring term of the year 1901-02 Calvin S. Brown was Acting 
Professor, while Dr. Ferrell was on leave of absence in Europe. Dr. 
Brown remained for the summer school, this being the first time Modern 
Languages were given in the summer term. During the year 1901-02 
James V. Bowen, B.P., was fellow in Modern Languages. He is now 
Professor of Modern Languages in the A. & M. College of Mississippi. 

Upon the division of the department of Modern Languages in 190.5, 
Calvin S. Brown, D.Sc, Ph.D., took charge of the Romance Languages 
and remained in charge until the autumn of 1909. 

French and Spanish have been regularly given since the establishment of 
the chair of Romance Languages in 1905, and Italian was added in 1907-08. 
In 1907 the students of French under the direction of Dr. Brown played 
Moliere's Le Malade imaginaire, and in 1908 Moliere's Le Bourgeois gen- 
tilhomme. Dr. Brown is a Tennessean by birth, a graduate of Vanderbilt 
University, and has studied and traveled extensively abroad. (See Who's 
Who in America.) 

John L. Deister, B.A., was made Assistant Professor in 1908, and upon 
the transfer of Dr. Brown to the German department in 1909, was pro- 
moted to the full professorship. Professor Deister was born in Missouri, 
graduated at the University of that State, and has spent much time in 
Mexico.

GERMANIC LANGUAGES. 

(See also Romance Languages and Latin.) 

German belonged to the School of Modern Languages until that school 
was divided in 1905. In the earlier history of the University French and 
Spanish were the living foreign languages taught, German apparently not 
being given until Professor Juny took charge of Modern Languages. 

Frederick A. Juny, S.T.D., an Alsatian by birth, a Catholic priest by 
profession, later an Episcopal clergyman, held the chair of Modern Lan- 
guages from 1872 to 1876. Born in the city of Metz, Professor Juny spoke 
both French and German from childhood. To him belongs the honor of 
introducing German into the University. 

Alexandre James Quinche, M.A.,LL.D., professor of Latin, was put 
in charge of the Modern Languages after Dr. Juny left and held the chair 
from 1876 to 1881. He discontinued German, giving only French during 
his occupancy. Dr. Quinche was born of Swiss parents at Fort Snelling, 
Minn., on the 17th of January, 1827. His boyhood was passed at Galena, 
111., and his collegiate education was obtained at the University of the 
City of New York and at the Columbian University, Washington, D. C. 

Charles Woodward Hutson came to the University in 1881 as instructor 
in Modern Languages, and in 1884 was advanced to the rank of professor. 
He held the chair until 1889. Under him German was restored and it has 
ever since held a place in the curriculum of the University. Professor 
Hutson was born in South Carolina in 1840, held the chair of Greek in the 
University of Louisiana for several years, and later, after leaving Miss- 
issippi, was Professor of History in the A. and M. College of Texas. (See 
Who's Who in America.) At present he resides in New Orleans. 

Joseph Auguste Fontaine, Ph.D., a Frenchman, next held the chair 
of Modern Languages, his tenure being for two years, 1889-91. Upon his 
resignation from Mississippi he went to Bryn Mawr as Assistant Profes- 
sor of Romance Languages and later returned to France, where he is 
still living. 

Hans Schmidt-Wartenberg, Ph.D., a native German, held the chair 
from 1891 to 1893. After retiring from Mississippi he went to the Uni- 
versity of Chicago. 

Following Dr. Schmidt-Wartenberg came Chiles Clifton Ferrell, M.A., 
Ph.D., who held the chair of Modern Languages until it was divided in 
1905 and from that time held the chair of Germanic Languages until 1908, 
when he resigned. Prof. Ferrell took his master's degree at Vanderbilt 
University and his doctor's degree at Leipzig, Germany. He is editor of 
Grillparzer's Sappho. (See Who's Who in America). Dr. Ferrell resides 
at present in Birmingham, Ala. During the spring and summer terms 
of 1901-2 Calvin S. Brown had charge of the department while Dr. Ferrell 
was on leave of absence in Europe. German was given then for the first 
time in the summer school. James V. Bowen, B.P., a graduate of this 
institution, was during 1901-2 teaching fellow in Modern Languages. He 
now holds the chair of Foreign Languages in the A. and M. College of 
Mississippi. 



38 UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 

Upon Dr. Ferrell's resignation in July, 1908, Calvin S. Brown, Ph.D., 
Professor of Romance Languages in the University of Mississippi, was 
asked to take charge of the department of Germanic Languages for the 
following year in addition to his regular duties. With him was associ- 
ated John L. Deister, B.A., as assistant professor. In 1909 Dr. Brown was 
permanently transferred to the chair of German and Prof. Deister took 
charge of the Romance Languages. Dr. Brown is a Tennessean by birth, 
a graduate of Vanderbilt University and the University of Colorado, and 
has studied in Germany and other European countries. He is editor of 
Tennyson's Poems and of the Later English Drama. (See Who's Who in

CHEMISTRY. 

Though the University opened in 1848, there is no record of a chair 
for teaching chemistry until 1850. At that time John Millington, M.D., 
was professor of chemistry and geology. The science under considera- 
tion was taught in the Junior year. In 1853 J. C. Keeney, A.M., was 
professor of chemistry, analytical chemistry, agriculture and geology. 
Johnston's Turner's Chemistry was used as a text for first half of Senior 
year, with analysis and agriculture for the last half. It is recorded for 
1854 that the Board of Trustees "at their late meeting in Jackson, erected 
a distinct professorship for instruction in geology, agriculture and an- 
alytical chemistry, which have heretofore been united with the chair of 
chemistry." A room was then being prepared for chemical analysis. In 
1854 Lewis Harper, LL.D., held the position of State geologist and pro- 
fessor of geology, agriculture and analytical chemistry. In that year 
the professorship of chemistry, natural philosophy and assistant State 
geologist was vacant, being filled in 1855 by the election of E. W. Hilgard, 
Ph.D. In 1856 E. C. Boynton, M.A., late assistant professor of chem- 
istry at West Point Military Academy, was chosen professor of chemistry, 
geology and mineralogy, the State survey having been detached from the 
University. The first full statement of the work offered in chemistry 
occurs in this year as follows: Instruction was offered only in the Junior 
year, with the laboratory enlarged and improved. "At each recitation 
every principle and fact of importance will be experimentally exhibited, 
accompanied by drawings and explanations intended to impart a more 
thorough understanding of the course than is usually secured by period- 
ical lectures. An expensive and complete apparatus has been secured 
and facilities for instruction are second to none in the country." In- 



UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 39 

struction was also offered in physical chemistry, inorganic and organic 
chemistry. 

In 1865 Dr. Hilgard, State geologist, was acting professor'of chemistry. 
He outlined his course as consisting of "daily lectures, accompanied by 
illustrative experiments alternating with recitations," and stated that 
"although thus far no express provision has been made in the curriculum 
for students who desire to make chemistry a special study, [a limited 
number of such may be admitted to a practical course in the laboratory 
by special arrangement." In 1856 he stated that "students may devote 
their entire time to this special department." The main text was Fownes. 
The course for the above work was announced in 1867 to consist of, for 
the first year, Chemistry (Roscoe, U. S. Dispensatory, Gmelin), Quali- 
tative Analysis (Fresenius, Will, Plattner); second year. Organic Labo- 
ratory Work and Quantitative Analysis (Rose) ; and third year, Technical 
Chemistry and Original Research. Every catalogue during Dr. Hilgard's 
administration claims "a large and well appointed laboratory, excelled 
by none in the South." In 1870 the chemical department offered a course 
in pharmacy and in agricultural chemistry. The year 1872 records Dr. 
Hilgard as professor of chemistry and agricultural chemistry, with J. B. 
Adger, Jr., as adjunct professor. The latter seems to have had entire 
charge of the laboratory, the former serving chiefly as State geologist. 
Dr. Hilgard resigned in 1874, Mr. Adger remaining in charge. For the 
session of 1875-76 there seems to have been no one occupying the chair of 
chemistry, but it was announced that the two professors of chemistry^to 
be elected would also open the newly founded school of agriculture and 
mechanic arts. Special students in chemistry were to be charged a fee 
of $75, with $25 additional for breakage. 

In 1876 Dr. R. W. Jones was elected professor of chemistry and nat- 
ural history, with L. L. Mclnnis, A.B., as tutor. Special post-graduate 
cources were offered. The next year T. D. Greenwood, A.B., tutor, 
died December 5th. During the following [session fj. M. Buchanan 
was assistant in chemistry. He remained until 1879. During the 
following two sessions J. W. Kilpatrick served as tutor. The course 
consisted of four hours of general chemistry and four hours of practical 
chemistry. W. E. Martin, A.B., was tutor for the year '81-'82. No tutors 
in chemistry are recorded from that year up to 1888. In 1885 Dr. Jones 
resigned and W. D. Hedleston, A.B., held the position of acting professor. 

Woodville Latham was elected professor in 1886 and six hours per week 
of laboratory work was added to the Senior year for B.S. students. In 
the year 1888 a fellowship in chemistry was established to encourage post- 
graduate work. The compensation was $300 per year, and the holder was 
required to spend part of his time as instructor. 

Dr. Jones returned to the University in 1889, with J. W. Provine, B.S., 
as fellow. Bloxam was the text for general chemistry, and Appleton for 
analysis. T. 0. Mabry held the fellowship from '90 to '92, and the cata- 
logue for 1891 gives figures to show the accuracy of the students in chem- 
ical analysis. In 1891 the texts used were changed to Richter, Remsen, 
Smith and Kellar and Thrope and Tait. The new courses were: for M.A., 



40 UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 

Remsen's Theoretical and part of Thorpe's Quantitative Analysis; for 
Ph.D., in addition to the above Cooke's Chemical Philosophy, Wurtz's 
Atomic Theory and selected methods. During the year '92-'93 Charles 
Strong held the position of fellow, his name also appearing in this capacity 
in the catalogues from ISO.') to 1897. It was announced in 1892 that B.A. 
students could elect general or analytical chemistry, such classes having 
been confined to general chemistry theretofore. The laboratory that 
year commenced subscribing to the following journals: Chemical News, 
Americal Chemical Journal, Annales de Chimie et de Physique, besides 
others that were received by the general library. In 1893 the courses were 
changed to Sophomore, Elementary Chemistry, two hours; Junior, In- 
organic and Organic Chemistry, three hours; Senior, Practical and An- 
alytical Chemistry, ten hours. From '92 to '9.5 no Ph.D. courses were 
announced. 

Eugene Campbell was elected fellow in chemistry in 1897, assistant in 1899 
and assistant professor in 1901. A course in metallurgy and assaying was 
added in 1900, and inorganic preparations and electrolytic and gas analysis 
in 1902. For the session 1904-05 W. A. Stevens, A.B., served as assistant, 
and the courses are for the first time announced in complete detail in the 
catalogue. General Chemistry and Analytical Chesmistry are arranged 
as two distinct schools. Altogether nine undergraduate courses are of- 
fered, besides several post-graduate courses. The following year A. H. 
Roop, B.S., served as assistant. In 1905 A.. M. Muckenfuss, Ph.D., was 
elected professor of Chemistry, Dr. Jones having resigned, and C. W. 
Martin was the assistant. In 1906 the two schools of chemistry were 
merged into one, and G. L. Paddison, M.A., was elected assistant. The 
courses were rearranged and the course in metallurgy abandoned. Alto- 
gether six undergraduate and four post-graduate courses were offered. 
A new lecture room and a new Freshman laboratory were constructed. 
During the summer of 1908 the Board of Trustees let contracts for the 
complete remodeling of the chemical laboratory, so that at present it has 
practically all modern conveniences. 

GEOLOGY. 

On the organization of the University of Mississippi in 1848 the first 
faculty consisted of four members, one of whom was a professor of Chem- 
istry and Natural Philosophy. There were thirty-five applicants for this 
chair, the election resulting in the choice of John N. Millington, M.D., 
then filling a chair at William and Mary College, Virginia. Dr. Milling- 
ton was an Englishman by birth, a former associate and pupil of Faraday, 
and at the time of his election was seventy years old. We know little of 
the extent of Geological teaching at the University at this time, but it 
must have commanded some attention, for on March 5, ISr^O, the Legis- 
lature of the State passed an Act authorizing an Agricultural and Geo- 
logical Survey of the State, the survey to be conducted from the Univer- 
sity with Dr. Millington as chief Geologist. In addition to his work in 
Chemistry the trustees appointed him Professor of Geology and Agri- 
culture. 



UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 41 

In January, 1852, Professor B. L. C. Wailes was appointed Assistant 
Professor of Geology and Assistant State Geologist, succeeding O. M. 
Leiber. Wailes had come into Mississippi in an earlier day as a surveyor 
of land for the U. S. Government and had located at Washington, Miss. 
Dr. Millington being too old to go into field-work vigorously. Professor 
Wailes prosecuted the survey, while Dr. Millington did the class work 
and analytical work of the survey. 

In 1853 Dr. Millington resigned his work at the University to accept 
a chair in Memphis Medical College, and John C. Keeney, A.M., was 
elected Professor of Chemistry, Agriculture and Geology. He served in 
this capacity but one session, Lewis Harper, LL.D., becoming Professor 
of Geology, Agriculture and Chemistry in 1854. Meanwhile Wailes had 
prosecuted the survey work, and in that year published his "Report on 
Geology and Agriculture of Mississippi," his name appearing as State 
Geologist at the request of Dr. Millington, who disclaimed the honor, 
since Wailes did the chief part of the work. 

During these early years Geology was a required study in the Senior 
class, but the details of the work are not given in the catalogues of the 
time. 

During the professorship of Lewis Harper, 1854-1856, he was also State 
Geologist. In 1856 he was succeeded by Edward C. Boynton, elected as 
Professor of Chemistry, Geology and Mineralogy, which is the first evi- 
dence of Mineralogy constituting a recognized part of the work. Boynton 
had been Assistant Professor of Chemistry at West Point. Harper con- 
tinued as State Geologist until 1857, the Legislature having disassociated 
the position from connection with the Geological Department at the 
University. E. W. Hilgard, Ph.D., was Assistant Geologist under Har- 
per and succeeded him in that capacity in 1857. 

In the year 1856 the University purchased for the Geological Depart- 
ment the Francis Markoe collection of minerals, which grace our cabinets 
at the present time. At the same time the Budd collection of shells was 
purchased in New York, containing some 10,000 specimens. These could 
not fail to add interest and effectiveness to the teaching in these depart- 
ments. 

Professor Boynton, though a Northern man, continued his work at the 
University until the very outbreak of the war in 1861. when the Univer- 
sity closed. 

In 1860 Dr. Hilgard. who had diligently prosecuted the survey of the 
State, published his "Report on the Agriculture and Geology of Missis- 
sippi." 

During the period of the Civil War all exercises at the University were 
suspended, though a small appropriation was allowed by the Legislature 
to pay the salary of State Geologist and defray necessary expenses for 
chemicals and apparatus for analysis. 

On the opening of the University after the war E. W. Hilgard was 
elected Professor of Chemistry, Mineralogy and Geology, beginning his 
work in that capacity in the session of 1866-67. Professor Hilgard, though 
not a native of Germany, was of German parentage and received his Doc- 



42 UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 

tor's degree at the University of Heidelberg in 1853. On leaving the Ger- 
man University he was elected Chemist of the Smithsonian Institution, 
where he served until his election to the University of Mississippi in 1850. 
He infused into all his work the energy and thoroughness of the German 
Schools of Science. 

In the following session, 1867-68, using the extensive collections of the 
various surveys of the State as a basis for more local study, a new course 
of Practical Chemistry and Geology was established, the Geological work 
being a special course in Mississippi Geology. Besides this, the course 
in General Geology was given as in previous years. This expansion of 
the department necessitated more workers, and the work became differ- 
entiated. Dr. Hilgard, assisted by R. H. Loughridge, doing the work in 
Chemistry, and Dr. George Little, assisted by E. A. Smith, Ph.D., doing 
the work in Geology. Dr. Little was from Alabama and had taken his 
Doctor's degree at the University of Gottingen, Germany, in 1859. Dr. 
Little was also State Geologist, having been elected two years previously,^ 
Dr. Smith being Assistant Geologist. 

Up to this time the work in Chemistry, Natural History and Geology 
had been merged under one management. Now we find the instruction 
in Chemistry constituting one work and that in Geology and Natural 
History another, with two instructors in each. All students were re- 
quired to take a half year of Geology and a half year of Mineralogy, three 
hours a week of the first and two hours a week of the last. It was a 
Senior work in all courses. 

In 1862 Congress gave to each State a grant of 30,000 acres of land for 
each Senator and Representative, the proceeds to be used for the estab- 
lishment of a College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts. By this grant 
Mississippi received 210,000 acres, but by Act of the Legislature this was 
divided, two-fifths of the land coming to the University, the other three- 
fifths going to Alcorn University. The proceeds of the sale of this land 
brought the University $75,600, with which a School of Agriculture and 
Mechanic Arts was established, one of the chairs in which was a chair of 
Agricultural and Economic Chemistry and Special Geology and Agri- 
culture of Mississippi. In 1871 Professor Hilgard was elected to this 
chair, and was also made State Geologist, R. H. Loughridge being Assist- 
ant State Geologist and Adjunct Professor of Chemistry. Dr. Little was 
also one of the staff of instructors in the new school, having the chair 
of Geology and Mineralogy. 

Under the provisions of the grant of land none of the $75,600 could be 
used in the erection of needed buildings, and as the Legislature failed to 
make the necessary appropriations for that purpose, the school began its 
work under a heavy handicap. 

The School of Agriculture, which had now become an established feat- 
ure of the University, chiefly through the enthusiastic and able efforts of 
Dr. Hilgard, suffered a very serious if not a fatal setback and the Uni- 
versity a heavy loss when, in 1873, Dr. Hilgard resigned his position to 
accept one at the University of Michigan. His position in the Agricul- 
tural School remained unfilled. Dr. Little, though an able Geologist, 
gave little attention to the agricultural side of the subject. 



UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 43 

In 1875 Dr. Landon C. Garland, Professor of Physics and Astronomy, 
was elected Acting Professor of Chemistry, Mineralogy and Geology. 
That one man should have been required to do the work that no less than 
five had been doing shows a wonderful shrinkage in the resources of the 
University. But when it is remembered that the State was in the throes 
of [reconstruction there is little reason for surprise. Necessarily the 
School of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts languished. 

In 1876 R. W. Jones, M.A., of Virginia, was elected Professor of Chem- 
istry and Natural History, including Mineralogy and Geology. Under 
Dr. Jones, besides the courses of instruction in Mineralogy and General 
Geology, the special course in Mississippi Geology and Agriculture was 
revived. Now, for the first time in the history of the University, we 
find mention of the fact that Mineralogy was studied by laboratory meth- 
ods. This, however, was required only of B.S. students. 

The work proving too much for one man, in 1877 Thos. D. Greenwood, 
A.B., a brilliant graduate of the University was appointed Tutor to Dr. 
Jones. In 1878, Greenwood having died by accidental poisoning, Jas. 
M. Buchanon filled the place of Assistant Professor of Chemistry and 
Natural History. 1879-81 J. W. Kilpatrick was tutor in Natural His- 
tory, followed by W. E. Martin, Dr. Jones filling the chief place until 
1882, when Geology and Natural History were placed in a separate depart- 
ment under Dr. George Little. At this time Mineralogy was taught two 
hours a week for half a year. Geology three hours a week for half a year. 
He gradually increased the hours until in 1888 Mineralogy and Geology 
were each taught five hours a week for half a year. 

In 1889 Natural History and Geology was again merged with the De- 
partment of Chemistry under Dr. R. W. Jones, with J. W. Johnson, A.M., 
Assistant. The work in Geology and Mineralogy continued under Pro- 
fessor Jones' management, with assistants elected from time to time, 
until 1894, when T. O. Mabry, M.A., was put in charge of Natural His- 
tory, Geology and Mineralogy, as Assistant Professor. 

Professor Mabry was succeeded in the work in 1899 by Dr. W. S. Leath- 
ers. In 1904 Professors Leathers was given an assistant, H. R. Fulton, 
now of Penn. Agricultural College. In 1905 E. N. Lowe was elected Assist- 
ant to Professor Leathers, doing chiefly the work in Geology and Miner- 
alogy. 

In 1906 Albert F. Crider, of the U. S. Geological Survey, was elected 
Professor of Geology. Professor Crider, on being elected State Geolo- 
gist in the same year, resigned this chair to prosecute the field work of 
the Survey, after only a few months connection with the University. 

The election of Professor Crider as Professor of Geology placed Geol- 
ogy in a department by iteslf for the first time in the history of the Uni- 
versity. It had been variously merged with Natural History, Chemis- 
try, Agriculture and Economic Chemistry, but never before had Geology 
and Mineralogy constituted one department. 

Following the resignation of Professor Crider, Professor Calvin S. 
Brown, of the Department of Romance Languages in the University, was 
offered the chair of Geology, Dr. Brown being at that time Assistant State

Geologist. Dr. Brown preferred to continue in the Language Depart- 
ment and declined. 

E. N. Lowe was elected Acting Professor of Geology and Mineralogy. 
In 1908 he was elected Professor of Geology, a few months previously 
having been elected Assistant State Geologist, Dr. Brown having resigned 
his place on the Survey. With the beginning of the session 1908-09 the 
Department of Geology and Mineralogy was liberally fitted up with much 
needed apparatus and furnishings and the Museum of the State Collec- 
tion has been rearranged and placed in suitable quarters in the Science 
Hall, so that it has been possible to expand the work along these lines. 

The department embraces, 1st, a course in General Geology; 2d, a 
course in Mineralogy and Petrology; 3d, a course in Mississippi Geology 
and Mineral Products; 4th, a course in Physiography. 

ENGLISH. 

The history of the School of English in the University of Mississippi 
is broadly typical of the development of English studies in American col- 
leges. It presents the same stages of evolution in general aspects, and 
these respective stages are rather closely co-incident with their develop- 
ment in the leading institutions of the country. We recognize four dis- 
tinct periods of this growth. Given by years they are as follows: First 
period, 1848-1857; second, 1857-1873; third, 1873-1890; fourth. 1890 to the 
present. 

The above division has been made under the guidance of two determ- 
ining considerations. The chief of these was the character of the work 
undertaken as this work is indicated in the definite outlines of courses 
and in the descriptive statements of English study found in the cata- 
logues; the other, which is chiefly determining only in marking the divi- 
sion of the second period from the first, is the recognition given by the 
Board of Trustees to English in its establishment as a separate depart- 
ment or in modifying it by the creation of separate "schools" embraced 
by the general department. It will be understood that growth has not 
been made wholly "by leaps and bounds." On the contrary, each stage 
reveals a tendency toward the fully developed standards, aims and ideals 
of its succeeding stage. It is true, however, that the years which marked 
the beginning of each period witnessed some decided, if not revolutionary, 
change of purpose in the English department. 

The fir.st period begins with the opening of the University and extends 
to the establishment of the "Department of English Literature" in 1858. 
Ex-Chancellor Mayes is authority for the statement, in his History of 
Education in Mississippi, that the late Dr. George F. Holmes, first presi- 
dent of the University, gave such instruction as was afforded in English. 
The catalogue of 1852-'53 shows that President A. B. Longstreet, in ad- 
dition to his duties as president, had imposed upon him the task of teach- 
ing a half dozen subjects, one of which happened to be Rhetoric. This 
subject stood in the curriculum in the second term of the Sophomore year. 
The text was "Dr. Blair's Rhetoric," a very formidable, not to say im- 
possible, book; but it was rich in classical flavor, abounding in allusions 



UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 45 

to, and quotations from, the best of Greek and Latin literatures. In the 
year 1856-'57 appear the names of N. M. Crawford, "Professor of Intel- 
lectual and Moral Philosophy," and of Wm. R. Barksdale, "Tutor in 
Rhetoric, Logic, Composition and Elocution." In the same catalogue, 
in the statements of departments, these names appear over the statement 
describing the "Department of Belles Lettres and Mental and Moral 
Philosophy." It appears that all the instruction in English studies was 
given by Mr. Barksdale. The work comprised English grammar in the 
Freshman year, rhetoric and punctuation in the Sophomore, and "the 
study of figures and the analysis of sentences" in the Junior. In the year 
'57-'58 Wm. T. J. Sullivan succeeded Mr. Barksdale in the position of 
Tutor. 

At the time the University of Mississippi was founded the claims of 
English for co-ordinate recognition with Latin, Greek and mathematics 
were not admitted, even if such claims were advanced*. During this 
first period, however, there is a distinct movement towards the establish- 
ment of those claims. The appointment of an instructor, although his 
rank was only that of a tutor, to give instruction in English studies dur- 
ing parts of three years marks a development from the situation when the 
whole of English study was comprised in the study of rhetoric for half 
session under the president of the institution, who taught five other sub- 
jects. 

In the year 1858 the second stage of the department's history is inaug- 
urated by the election of Professor Wm. D. Moore, M.A., to the "Chair 
of English Literature." While the establishment of the chair did not 
result in any very decided advance in the courses given, the fact of its 
establishment is memorably significant. Few institutions in the entire 
country had at that time shown such appreciation of the importance of 
the study of the English language and literature, and, as far as I have been 
able to ascertain, no Southern college or university established the chair 
so early. The University of Virginia, greatest in influence and history 
of the universities of the South, has had courses in Anglo-Saxon since 
1825, but the special department of the English language and literature 
was not established there until 1882. 

The advance made under the professorship of Mr. Moore is embraced 
in the extension of English work to four years, the introduction of the 
"study of literature" in the Senior year, and the introduction of the study 
of Anglo-Saxon. As to what work was done under the indefinite phrase 
"study of literature" we cannot tell. There is recognizable in the de- 
partmental administration of Professor Moore a movement towards the 
study of philology, as indicated in the growing emphasis placed on the 
course in Anglo-Saxon. This was probably in recognition of the tendency 
of that time to give more importance to that branch of English in the 
representative institutions of the country. This movement was arrested 



•The ends of English study were sought to be attained by two accessory features of college 
life. First, the literary societies were largely depended upon to supply training in composition; 
second, original speeches from senior students, and compositions, alternating with declamations, 
from the other classes delivered before the University body afforded additional training. 



46 UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 

during the incumbency of Professor S. G. Burney, who succeeded to the 
chair in 1865, and it remained for his successor to give pre-eminent im- 
portance to that branch of English study toward which Professor Moore 
was gradually moving. 

The features worthy of note under the administration of Professor 
Burney are: (1) the introducing of the study of the "History of English 
Literature," (2) the gradual elimination of Anglo-Saxon from the course 
of study, and (3) the announcement of post-graduate courses for such 
as might apply for them. During his incumbency the position of "As- 
sistant in English Literature" was held by Edward Mayes (1869-'70), 
later eminent as Professor of Law and Chancellor of the University, and 
John W. Shields ( 1870-72) . 

Professor Burney resigned after the session '71-72. The professor- 
ship was vacant in the session 72-73, and the department was in charge 
of Adjunct-Professor Shields. 

The session 73-74 begins the third period in the history of the depart- 
ment. Hardly any date, excepting perhaps that which marks the be- 
ginning of the fourth period, is so nearly epochal in the department's 
growth. In that year Professor J. L. Johnson came to the University as 
"Professor of English Literature and Provisional Instructor in Elocu- 
tion." Professor Johnson had very definite convictions as to what should 
constitute a college course in English, and he announces at length and with 
enthusiasm the aims of his department. He had been educated at the 
University of Virginia, where he had learned to attach great importance 
to "Old English" as forming not only the basis but the body for English 
scholarship. He shows himself wholly alive to the educational movement 
of his time, at a period when representative institutions were recognizing 
the eminent claims of English for a large place in a college curriculum. 
Although time has proved that the body of English instruction in under- 
graduate courses should consist of work in literature and composition. 
Professor Johnson was in harmony with the accepted ideas of the leading 
English teachers of his day in giving over-shadowing prominence to the 
study of Anglo-Saxon and the historical development of the language. 
A single scientific fact which his work emphasized might alone be con- 
sidered a revolutionary contribution. That was that the English lan- 
guage is not fashioned on the model of the Latin, but is a product of evo- 
lution, inseperable from the life of the people who spoke it. In Profes- 
sor Johnson's first catalogue statement three out of the four years of the 
entire work were given to the study of language, and the courses were all 
based on the idea of historical development. The course of the Junior 
year is described by the following analysis: "Morris' English Accidence, 
Earle's Philology of the English Tongue, Professor's Lectures on Linguistic 
Science." The "joy in widest commonalty spread" could hardly have 
extended to the class in junior English in the '70's. The work of the 
senior year was given up to literature. In the first term "literary bi- 
ography and the reciprocal relations of literature and history" were stud- 
ied, with Shaw's Complete Manual of English Literature as a text. Hale's 
Longer English Poems and Rolfe's The Merchant of Venice were studied

in the second term. It appears that, for some reason, the extensive work 
in Anglo-Saxon which Professor Johnson offered at first was somewhat 
abridged in the latter years of his incumbency. Co-incident with this 
there was some extension of the study of literature. A course in Ameri- 
can literature, for instance, was first given in 1886-'87. In this fact we 
recognize again the law of evolution in these stages of growth; the grad- 
ual growth of literature courses was a movement toward the fourth stage 
where literature should come into its own as the most important part of 
English study. 

Between stages three and four there is a transition of one year, the 
session of '89-'90. In that year Professor R. M. Leavell, since so widely 
loved and honored as Professor of Philosophy, Logic and Political Econ- 
omy in the University, was called to the chair of English and Belles Let- 
tres. The "school" of Belles Lettres was established upon the recom- 
mendation of Chancellor Mayes. A man of fine general literary attain- 
ments himself, he appreciated the importance of giving this special prom- 
inence to the study of pure literature, or "mere literature," as it was 
disparagingly termed by the conservative scholars in English of that time. 

The fourth, and last, period of the school's development was signal- 
ized by the transfer of Professor William Rice Sims from the school 
of Mental and Moral Philosophy, Logic and Political Economy to the 
school of English and Belles Lettres. The early nineties make an im- 
portant period in the teaching of English throughout the country. It 
is hardly too much to say that the period marks the complete estab- 
lishment of modern ideas of English instruction. Two definite influences 
contributed largely toward this. One was the report of the English de- 
partment of Harvard University on the teaching of composition and 
rhetoric, the other was the epochal report of the conference on English 
appointed by the Committee of Ten. The influence of these reports and 
the sum of undefined tendencies prevalent elsewhere are manifest in the 
development of the department of English in the University of Missis- 
sippi during the last decade of the past century. The most significant 
results are found in the introduction of entrance requirements that stress 
previous preparation in literature and rhetoric, in the differentiation 
effected between literature and linguistics, and in the further differenti- 
ation of practical rhetoric from each of these. 

The altered character of English instruction here indicated gave greater 
influence and prominence to the school than it had had before. However, 
the new interest in English that characterized this period was not due 
chiefly to the increased attention given to literature. By all tokens Pro- 
fessor Sims added to a brilliant intellect unusual literary gifts and rare 
teaching ability. He retired from the University in 1895. In general 
ideas and purposes the school has not been altered radically since he held 
the chair. 

In 1895 Professor Dabney Lipscomb, an alumnus of the University in 
the class of 79, was called to the chair. Under his administration the 
study of literature continued to hold the chief place as it had done under 
Professor Sims. The noteworthy feature of Professor Lipscomb's ad-

ministration was the increased emphasis on entrance requirements. The 
statement in the catalogue of his first year describes his standard: "Some 
degree of literary culture must be evidenced by the applicant to be tested 
by a knowledge of the extent of his reading and by the manner in which 
he reproduces orally or in writing something that he has recently read." 
A list of literary works are suggested for this preparation. In the state- 
ment of the catalogue of the session '96-'97 the study courses of the South- 
ern Association of Preparatory Schools and Colleges are adopted as en- 
trance requirements in English. 

The present occupant of the chair was elected in 1904. Two features 
may be noted in the history of the last few sessions. One of them mani- 
fests itself in the arrangement of the courses in literature according to a 
central purpose that gives unity to the course, such as the study of some 
literary form, the work of one great writer or the works of two or more 
great writers closely related, or the literature of a period; the other is 
found in the course for freshmen students, which consists almost wholly 
of work in composition. 

The School of Belles Lettres was maintained from its establishment 
in 1889-'90 until 1905-'06, when, in view of the fact that the extensive 
inclusion of various types and periods of literature embraced practically 
all that had previously been given as Belles Lettres, upon the recommen- 
dation of the professor the school of Belles Lettres was absorbed by the 
School of English, and the distinction, which in reality had ceased to ex- 
ist, was no longer maintained in the catalogue. 

The School of Rhetoric was established in 1897 and Professor Franklin 
L. Riley was called to the professorship of Rhetoric and History. This 
relationship was continued for three sessions. In 1900 the School of Rhet- 
oric was attached to the schools of English and Belles Lettres, and Pro- 
fessor Lipscomb was given charge of all. This grouping was maintained 
until the session of 1905-'06 when Professor Hubert A. Shands was called 
to the chair of Rhetoric and Oratory. At the end of that year, however, 
rhetoric was again attached to the School of English, and this arrange- 
ment is still retained. 

The courses offered in the schools of English and Rhetoric for the ses- 
sion 1909-'10 are found published in the current catalogue. 

Professor David H. Bishop has been Professor of English since 1904. 

HISTORY. 

No provision was made for direct instruction in history in the Uni- 
versity of Mississippi in the first decade after its establishment. With 
the exception of a reading course in Voltaire's Histoire de Charles XIl, in 
the School of French, and of a course in Browne's History of Greek and 
Roman Classical Literature, in the Schools of Greek and Latin, History 
was not then taught even incidentally in the institution. 

The first efforts to supply this deficiency seem to have been made in 
1857 by Prof. Wilson G. Richardson, of the Department of Latin and 
Modern Languages. Faint symptoms of such a development are to be 
found, however, in an announcement that appeared in the catalogue of 



UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 49 

the tenth session (1857-^58). It reads as follows: "The history of the 
Roman people, the state of the arts among them, their domestic life, 
public and private usages, their mythology, laws, education, geography 
and antiquities, are severally developed in expounding Roman authors." 
In the catalogue of the following year Roman History appeared in the 
summary of courses for a full session of the Sophomore year. The fol- 
lowing works were "recommended to students": "History of Rome to 
the Third Punic War— Arnold; From the Third Punic War to the Empire 
— Liddell; From Augustus to the Antonines— Schmitz or Putz; From 
the Antonines to the Capture of Constantinople by the Turks in 1453— 
Smith's Expurgated Gibbon; For the Earlier period of Roman History 
— Niebuhr." 

In the catalogue of the following session this announcement was re- 
peated and a course in English and American History for the first half of 
the Senior year was added. It is impossible to ascertain, however, what 
texts were used or in what department the subjects were taught. 

During the first five years after the War of Secession the only histor- 
ical instruction in the University was a course in Roman History given 
by the Professor of Latin to students in the Sophomore class. 

Upon the adoption of a new curriculum in 1870, General History was 
prescribed in every course leading to a Bachelor's degree, as follows: 
Half of the Freshman year for B.S. students, the entire Sophomore year 
for B.A. and B.P. students, and the entire Senior year for Engineering 
students. Wilson's Outlines was the adopted text in all of these classes. 
History and Political Economy were given for the first time a place among 
the optional studies for the M.A. degree. History was added to the chair 
of Metaphysics, Logic, and Political Economy, then held by James A. 
Lyon, D.D. Two hours a week were devoted to this subject. It is inter- 
esting to note that in the catalogues of that period the scope of the His- 
tory course is shown by the expression "Ancient, Middle and Modern 
History, Ancient Geography and Chronology." 

It seems that at this time (1870) the early creation of a separate chair 
of History and Political Economy was contemplated, since these sub- 
jects appear in the catalogue for the flfrst time as a separate school. But 
in a note which follows an announcement is made to the effect that "for 
the present" this chair and that of Metaphysics and Logic "shall be filled 
by the same incumbent." 

In the catalogue of 1872-73 Dr. Lyons' name appears as "Professor of 
Metaphysics and Logic, Provisional Professor of Political Economy and 
History." Mr. A. H. Whitfield*, who had graduated with first honors 
in 1871 and had served as Assistant in Greek during the following session, 
was then (1873) given additional work as instructor in History. In the 
same year a prize of forty dollars for efficiency in History was awarded to 
James M. Sharpe, of Pike County. Two years of History was required of 
B.S. students and a two hours course in the same subject was also required 
of Freshmen students in the newly added "School of Agriculture and 
Mechanic Arts."

50 UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 

At the end of the following session Mr. Whitfield was promoted to the 
rank of Adjunct Professor of Greek, and the subject of History was dropped 
from his title. Although no provision seems to have been made at that 
time for teaching history, a prize of forty dollars "for proficiency in His- 
tory" was that year awarded to J. W. Kilpatrick, of Corinth, and Thomas 
W. Stockard, of Lowndes County. The usual references were made to 
History in the summaries of courses, but no mention of the subject is 
found in the detailed statements of the different schools of the University. 

In the catalogue of 1876-77 the name of Gen. Alex. P. Stewart appears 
as Chancellor and Professor of History. No changes were made at that 
time in the History courses for University classes, but the subject was 
added to the curriculum of the preparatory department. Unites States 
History (Swinton's) being required in the second term of the first year. 
History was not, however, a required subject for admission to the Uni- 
versity or to the School of History. 

In the following year General Stewart was given the work in Political 
Economy in addition to his other duties. History was then prescribed 
for the first year in the B.P. course and the third year in the B.A. course, 
but was omitted entirely from the B.S. course. 

This requirement continued until 1880 when history was given through- 
out the third year in the B.A. and B.P. courses. At that time a two years' 
course in United States History was required of preparatory students, 
Swinton's and Ridpath's texts being used. Two years later the prepara- 
tory course was reduced to two years, and the subject of United States 
History was given in only one of them. 

No further changes appear in the announcements of history courses 
until 1884, when the prescribed work in that subject was reduced to the 
latter half of the fourth year for B.A. and B.P. students. 

In the catalogue of 1885-86 appears the statement that "History has 
been assigned temporarily to the Professor of Modern Languages." It 
appears, however, that this assignment was unsatisfactory, as Chancellor 
Stewart continued to give instruction in Ancient and Modern History and 
Chronology during the second term of the Senior year in the courses for 
the B.A. and B.P. degrees, and the required work in Greek and Roman 
History was given by the Professors of Greek and Latin respectively. 
An undesignated course in "History" was also prescribed for the second 
term of the Junior year for B.A. students. Roman History in the second 
term of the Freshman year and an undesignated course in "History" 
throughout the same term of the Sophomore year were prescribed for the 
B.S. degree. 

In the following year the work in History was assigned "temporarily" 
to the chair of Modern Languages, then held by Prof. Charles W. Hutson.* 
The catalogue of that year stated that History was "a required study in 
the B.A. course; not in any other." The following extract from the cat- 
alogue of 18S7-88 indicates that Professor Hutson accepted the new as- 
signment with some misgivings: "The time forbids any thorough explo- 
ration of so vast a field. It is assumed that the student comes to it here

with some preparation received in the training schools and from private 
reading. During the half year's daily attendance on lectures, with some 
practice in individual research, the student's mind is impressed with an 
outline of the science of history. The method of instruction is partly 
by lectures." The reader will appreciate the situation if he will bear in 
mind the fact that, in addition to his work in History, Professor Hutson 
was expected to give courses in French, German, Spanish and Italian. 

In 1889 "A School of History, of one year's course" is published as one 
of the nineteen schools of the University, "each being independent of the 
others." In the same year Prof. W. R. Sims became "Professor of Men- 
tal and Moral Philosophy, of Logic, of History and of Political Science." 
The extent of his history work is indicated by the announcement of only 
one course in the subject ("General Sketch of Mediaeval and Modern 
History, Geography and Chronology"), and this extended through only 
half of a session. An entrance examination in United States History was 
then required for the first time for admission to this school, but not for 
admission to the University. 

The annual catalogue for 1890-91 announces a post-graduate course 
on "Mississippi as a Province and as a Territory, based on the Claiborne 
collection of original manuscripts," which had been recently deposited 
at the University by an Act of the State Legislature. 

In 1890 Prof. P. H. Eager* became Professor of Mental and Moral 
Philosophy, Logic, History and Political Economy. He was assisted by 
a worthy young law student, Mr. A. B. Amis, whose official title was "Tutor 
in History." A special course in English History was then added to the 
curriculum. In the following year five hours a week for a half session were 
required in Mediaeval and Modern History with extra readings "on epochs 
of commanding interest." The same time was also devoted to a course 
based on Greene's Short History of the English People. 

In 1891 Professor Eager was succeeded by Professor R. M. Leavell.t 
In the following year Mr. L. B. Howry became Fellow in History. A 
course in American History was then announced in connection with that 
in English History, the work in the latter subject being probably abridged 
to provide therefor. 

In the session of 1893-94 the History course was given by Professor 
Leavell without an assistant. The work was then organized as follows: 
Ancient History, throughout the Sophomore year, two hours; Mediaeval 
and Modern History with some work in English and American History 
throughout the Junior year, three hours. Both of these courses were made 
conditional requirements for the B.A. degree, choice being given between 
them and Logic and Political Economy. They were also offered in elect- 
ives for the B.S. degree. 

In a course of study for high schools published in the catalogue for 
1894-95 no mention is made of Ancient History or Mediaeval and Modern 
History, and, strange to say, United States History and English History 
appear under the title "An English Course for High Schools."

52 UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 

In 1895 Mr. R. E. Wilbourn became Fellow in History and English, 
which position he held for two sessions. During this time there was an 
increased amount of library work in connection with the History course. 
Readings were regularly assigned in addition to the text-book and special 
examinations were given in the same from time to time. 

To relieve two over-crowded schools, the subjects of History and Rhet- 
oric were temporarily combined to form a new chair in June, 1897. Frank- 
lin L. Riley, Ph.D., *then President of Hillman College, was elected to this 
position with the title of Professor of History and Rhetoric. Formal 
historical instruction in Greek and Roman History by the schools of Greek 
and Latin was discontinued in 1899, all of the work in Ancient History 
being given to the new chair. After the combination of History and 
Rhetoric in the same chair had continued three years, the development 
of the History work necessitated their separation. The subject of Rhet- 
oric was then given back to the chair of English, the Professor of English 
being given an assistant, and the former Professor of History and Rhet- 
oric was given the chair of History, which position he still fills. 

The rapid growth of the School of History led, in 1905, to the employ- 
ment of Beverly W. Bond, Ph.D.,t as Assistant Professor of History. As a 
result several new courses were added in the following session. But in 
pursuance of a policy of retrenchment, in June, 1906, the assistant profes- 
sorship was abolished. This necessitated the reorganization of the work 
at the beginning of the next session and the cancellation of four of the 
courses which had been announced. The development of the School of 
History was thereby temporarily retarded. After the opening of the 
session of 1906-7 a slight degree of relief was afforded the school by the 
appointment of Mr. J. C. Johnson to the position of Reader in History. 
In the following session Mr. S. P. Walker became Reader in History, Mr. 
Johnson having become Professor of Oratory. In the same year a legis- 
lative appropriation of upwards of a thousand dollars was made avail- 
able for the purchase of books for the School of History. 

Little progress was made in the development of the school in the ses- 
sion of 1908-09, though some important plans were made which have 
characterized the work of the current year. At present the Professor of 
History is assisted by two Instructors, Mr. Fred M. Witty and Mr. S. P. 
Stubblefield, and by a Fellow, Mr. A. D. Somerville. 

Certain phases of the development of this department since 1897 are 
here given a topical treatment, as follows: 

ENTRANCE REQUIBEMENTS. 

The subject of United States History was required for admission to 
the School of History in 1897. Four years later the requirement was 
raised by the addition of a year's work in General History. In 1904 a 
year's work in Ancient or Mediaeval and Modern History was substi- 
tuted for the requirement in General History. Beginning with the ses- 
sion of 1910-11 three years of high school work will be required for entrance

to University classes in History, as follows: One year each in Ancient 
History, in Mediaeval and Modern or English History, and in United States 
History. 

HISTORY C0UE8ES. 

In 1897 a Senior optional course of three hours in the Political and 
Constitutional History of the United States was added to those hitherto 
oflfered. Four years later a two-hour optional course in English Consti- 
tutional History was added to the curriculum. A course of two hours a 
week in Nineteenth Century History was first offered in 1904. Upon the 
addition of Dr. Beverly W. Bond to the teaching force in History in 1905 
two other new courses were given as follows: Diplomatic History of the 
United States, two hours a week throughout the session, and Methods of 
Teaching History, one hour a week throughout the session. In 1907 a 
seminary course in American History was given for the first time. In 
the following session a two hours lecture course in Political History of 
the South was introduced. The History work was also made to begin in 
the Freshman instead of the Sophomore year. The following courses in 
History are being given in the current session:

MISSISSIPPI HISTORICAL SOCIETY. 

The Mississippi Historical Society was organized at the University 
of Mississippi in 1890, and was incorporated by the Legislature in the 
same year. Its membership has always embraced many members of the 
Faculty of the University, and its first Secretary and Treasurer was Dr. 
W. R. Sims, who was then Professor of History in connection with other 
subjects in this institution. 

During the first four years after its organization, the Society held 
frequent meetings and collected some relics and documents, the most 
important being the Claiborne collection of manuscripts. No contribu- 
tions to State history were prepared or publications issued under its aus- 
pices. Then followed a period of four years, during which the Society 
was in a moribund state. 

Shortly after entering upon his work as Professor of History and Rhet- 
oric, in 1897, the present Professor of History was requested to accept the 
position of Secretary and Treasurer of the then defunct Society. A suc- 
cessful effort was made to awaken wider interest and to enlist a larger 
membership. 

Throughout its history this Society has had its headquarters at the 
University of Mississippi. Its policies have for the most part been out- 
lined by the secretaries who have been connected with the School of His- 
tory in this institution. The students and alumni of the University have 



UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 55 

also been among the most valued contributors to State history since 1897. 
The School of History in the University of Mississippi has rendered the 
following services to the cause of State and Southern History since 1897: 

1. Reorganized the Mississippi Historical Society and enlarged its 
activities. 

2. Stimulated interest in original research by means of public histor- 
ical meetings. 

3. Procured special biennial legislative appropriations for State His- 
tory. 

4. Directed the work of the Mississippi History Commission, which 
prepared the most elaborate report ever published on the documentary 
sources of State History. 

5. Induced the Legislature to establish a State Department of Ar- 
chives and History, with headquarters in the Capitol. 

6. Edited ten volumes of Publications (4,517 pages), which contain 
238 contributions relating to almost every period and phase of State His- 
tory. 

7. Edited A Political History of the South ("The South in the Building 
of the Nation" Series.) 

ORIGINAL BESEABCH. 

With a view to promoting an interest in original research, the Uni- 
versity Historical Society was organized in April, 1898. Monthly meet- 
ings were held and several valuable contributions to State History were 
read before it during the period of its activity. It did not fully meet 
the demands of the situation, however, as no provision was made where- 
by the Professor of History could give personal direction to the investi- 
gations of students. In 1906 a Historical Seminary was organized, which 
has since fully met the needs. During the three years of its existence 
some valuable original work has been done in the local history of recon- 
struction in Mississippi, as follows: 

E. C. Coleman, Reconstruction in Attalla County.* 
W. H. Braden, Reconstruction in Lee County, f 

F. M. Witty, Reconstruction in Carroll and Montgomery Counties. J

BIOLOGY AND PHYSIOLOGY. 

It seems that the work of this school was done for the first time in the 
University in the form of natural history. The catalogue of 1869-70 
includes a description of the courses under the direction of Dr. E. W. 
Hilgard. Doctor Hilgard was the professor at that time of Biology, 
Chemistry and Geology. During the year of 1870-71 Dr. George Little 
was made State geologist and Eugene Smith, Ph.D., now State geologist 
of Alabama, was elected as assistant geologist. It appears that a few 
elementary courses were given in the institution in the biological sub- 
jects. For the following two or three years the courses were enlarged to 
some extent, but there was very little if any laboratory work done. The 
chair was declared vacant during the year 1875-76. Beginning with the 
year 1876-77 Richard W. Jones was made professor of chemistry and nat- 
ural history, with Louis L. Mclnnis, A.B., as tutor. During the session 
of 1877-78 Mr. Greenwood continued as tutor and Dr. James M. Buchanan, 
now at the head of the State insane asylum at Meridian, served as the 
assistant in Chemistry. From 1879-'81 Joshua W. Kilpatrick acted as 
tutor and William E. Martin was elected to fill this position for the year 
1881-'82. In June, 1882, the Board of Trustees deemed it advisable to 
divide the chair. Dr. Jones was continued as the professor of Chemistry 
and Dr. George Little was elected to fill the chair of Natural History. 
This arrangement was continued until the year 1889, when Doctor Little 
resigned and Dr. Richard W. Jones was again chosen to the combination 
chair of Natural History, Geology and Chemistry. It was evident that 
the work was too heavy for one man and Dr. John W. Johnson was made 
assistant professor of Mathematics, English and Natural History in 1889- 
'90, and Thos. Ovid Mabry served as tutor in the department. During the 
same year Frank Clark Holmes, B.S., was elected as a fellow in Natural 
History and Geology. For the first time in the history of the University 
the work in Natural History was separated from that of Chemistry, and 
Thos. Ovid Mabry, M.S., was chosen as the assistant professor. In June, 
1895, Prof. Mabry obtained a leave of absence and Dr. W. S. Leathers 
filled the vacancy until April of 1896 when Prof. Mabry returned to 
the institution. The position was filled most acceptably by Prof. Mabry 
until June, 1898 when he resigned. The chair remained vacant for a period 
of one year, and in June, 1899, Dr. W. S. Leathers was elected to fill the 
vacancy as an assistant professor. The Board, in 1903, made the chair 
a full professorship, and at that time the medical department was organ- 
ized and this necessitated the appointment of an assistant in the depart- 
ment. Mr. Harry Fulton was chosen for this position. At the close of 



58 UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 

this session Mr. Fulton resigned to accept a fellowship in the University 
of Missouri and Dr. E. N. Lowe, who was at the time doing graduate 
work in the department, was elected to the position. Owing to the de- 
mand for geological work and the enlargment of the biological department 
it was decided to divide the chair in June, 1908, into Biology and Physiol- 
ogy and Geology. Dr. E. N. Lowe was then made the professor of Ge- 
ology and Mineralogy and Dr. W. S. Leathers was continued as the 
professor of Biology and Physiology, with Mr. Robert C. Rhodes, M.A., 
of Vanderbilt University acting as the assistant in Biology and Physi- 
ology. 

The work of the department has steadily developed and at the present 
time it has the largest attendance in its history. 



ORATORY. 

The history of the School of Oratory and Elocution in the University 
falls naturally into two periods, the first extending from the founding of 
the University to the year 1885, the second from 188.5 to the present time. 
During the first period instruction in public speaking was given in con- 
junction with the work of other schools. During the second period pub- 
lic speaking has held the rank of a distinct school. 

The earliest discoverable announcement of this work is that published 
in the catalogue of 1853-'54, under the heading of Elocution and Composi- 
tion. "Two members of the Senior class, in alphabetical order, deliver 
original orations on each Monday afternoon in the presence of the faculty 
and the students assembled. The three lower classes declaim, also in 
rotation, and exhibit original compositions on the first Monday of each 
month to their respective professors." This seems to have been the mode 
of training used through all the earlier years of the institution up to the 
year 1856. 

It may be observed, in passing, that all the old catalogues announce 
the Hermaean and the Phi Sigma Literary Societies as student organiza- 
tions, established for the improvement of their members in Elocution, 
Composition, Extempore Speaking and Debate, and commend these so- 
cieties as "most important auxiliaries in promoting the great objects of 
the institution." The first formal instruction in Elocution was given in 
1856-'57 along with English, Rhetoric and Logic in the department of 
Belles Lettres, Moral and Mental Philosophy under Professor N. M. 
Crawford, D.D., and Mr. W. R. Barksdale, B.A., tutor. The text-books 
used were Caldwell's Manual of Elocution and Rush's Philosophy of the 
Voice. This course was continued in the same department the next year, 
but was under charge of Mr. William T. J. Sullivan, Tutor in Rhetoric, 
Logic, Composition and Elocution. When, in 1858, English Literature 
became a separate department under Professor William D. Moore, M.A., 
Elocution was included in this department and was required as an ac- 
companiment of the work in English throughout the course. This ar- 
rangement continued till 1861. 

From the resumption of University work in 1865 till 1868 Professor 



UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 59 

S. G. Burney, D.D., of the department of English Literature offered a 
course essentially the same as that just mentioned above, basing his work 
upon Caldwell's Manual of Elocution, and requiring compositions and 
declamations throughout the course. In the catalogue of 1867-'68 the 
Board of Trustees announce their offer of two gold medals as prizes to 
students of the Sophomore class for excellence in Elocution. The year 
1868 is marked by the separation of Elocution from the department of 
English, provision then being made that "the practical exercises of all 
the college classes in Elocution and English Composition be under charge 
of the department of Logic, Metaphysics and Political Science." Pro- 
fessor F. A. Shoup, M.A., was the head of this department. This arrange- 
ment continued also from 1869 to 1872 under Professor James A. Lyon, 
D.D. During the last two years of this work Professor Lyon gave a Jun- 
ior course in The Principles of Eloquence. The next year, however. Elo- 
cution was shifted back to its former position. The catalogue of that 
year announces a department of English Literature, Composition and 
Elocution, under Adjunct Professor J. W. Shields, B.A. In 1873 Profes- 
sor John Lipscomb Johnson was placed at the head of this department, 
with the title of Professor of English Literature and Provisional Instructor 
in Elocution. Doctor Johnson conducted all training in public speaking, 
then, continuously up to the year 1885, giving instruction in Enunciation 
and in Gesture, and requiring in all courses weekly exercises in class de- 
bates and in declamation. 

While it is regretted that the catalogue statements of courses offered 
in Oratory during the first period are, in the main, so brief and general as 
to give but an inadequate notion of the scope and character of the instruc- 
tion, yet, from the scholarship of the professors who had charge of the work 
and from the distinction achieved by men who were trained here — the best 
criteria — it must be inferred that this subject, in spite of its subordination 
to other schools, maintained a high standard of excellence. 

The Board of Trustees, on June 25, 1884, passed a resolution ordering 
"that the matter of the election of a teacher of Elocution in this Uni- 
versity be referred to the committee to meet and report to the Board in 
August." The report of this committee was as follows: "That the 
Executive Committee be authorized to employ a suitable man, specially 
fitted for that duty, to teach Elocution, at a monthly salary, for such 
time during each term as they may find it expedient to employ such teach- 
er." This resolution was adopted. At the meeting of the Board, on 
June 27, 1885, a motion was made "that Miss Sallie McGee Isom be and 
she is hereby employed, at the salary and on the terms now paid to tutors, 
to teach Elocution in this University during the ensuing session." Ac- 
tion on the matter, however, was postponed until the following September. 
On September 2, 1885, the motion was adopted. Within a few years, 
however, the merits of the school thus established were recognized, the 
salary of the instructor was raised and work done in the school was counted 
toward the baccalaureate degrees. Miss Isom's announcement of her 
courses of study, as found in the catalogue of 1886, was substantially as 
follows. "The purpose of the course is to produce effective readers and 



60 UNIVERSITY OF MWRISSIPPI. 

speakers, to substitute natural methods of expression for the faulty de- 
livery prevalent in the pulpit, on the platform and on the stage. The 
course covers the entire range of expression. To professional students 
it is a course practically necessary, and to others it is of great value as 
conducive to health and personal accomplishment." The subjects of 
study were: Physical Training, Respiration, Vocal Culture, Articula- 
tion, Gesture, Inflection, Emphasis, Analysis, Dramatic Reading. The 
text-books used were: Shoemaker's Practical Elocution, Best Things from 
Best Authors, Selected Plays of Shakespeare, The Delsarte System of Ora- 
tory. The general plan of the work remained essentially unchanged up 
to 1905. Near the end of April of that year the chair was made vacant 
by Miss Isom's death. In her death the University lost a most consci- 
entious and efficient instructor, and the cause of Elocution a most ardent 
advocate and an artist of the highest rank. 

The School of Elocution was succeeded the next year by a School of 
Rhetoric and Oratory under charge of Professor Hubert A. Shands, Ph.D. 
The courses of study offered by Professor Shands were courses in Rhetoric 
and Composition, including Poetry and the short story, and courses in 
Argumentation and Debate. At the end of the session of 1905-'06 the 
department was discontinued and for two years thereafter no oratorical 
work at all was offered by the University. In June, 1908, in response to 
a petition of the students of the University the school was re-established 
under the name of the Department of Oratory, and Professor John Clarke 
Johnson was placed at the head of it. Briefly stated the courses of study 
now offered include both Elocution, with training in Vocal Expression and 
in Gesture, and Oratory proper, with study and practice in Argumenta- 
tion, Brief Drawing and Debate, in the composition and delivery of orig- 
inal orations, and in Extempore Speaking. 

FINE ARTS. 

Throughout the year 1907-'08 a course in the history and appreciation 
of the fine arts was given by Dr. Calvin S. Brown, professor of Romance 
Languages. The course dealt especially with architecture, sculpture and 
painting, but touched upon music, poetry and the minor arts, such as 
pottery, metal work, stained glass, mosaics, etc. The course was restricted 
to Jimiors and Seniors and enrolled twelve students. Near the end of 
the year an art exhibition was held, embracing reproductions of many 
famous paintings, statues and buildings, paintings by local artists and 
examples of brass, bronze, copper, pottery, cameos, etc.. loaned from the 
homes of Oxford and the University.

THE DEPARTMENT OF LAW. 

The Department of Law was established in the year 1854 by an Act 
of the Legislature, which amended the charter of the University in response 
to a memorial of the trustees of the institution presented in their behalf 
by one of their number, the Honorable Jacob Thompson. 

William F. Stearns, LL.D., a prominent member of the Holly Springs 
Bar, was elected to the "Chair of Law and Governmental Science" thus 
created. 

The prescribed course of study for the degree of bachelor of laws in- 
cluded two sessions of ten months each. 

It is interesting to note that at that early date a composite course of 
law and letters was given as indicated by the following statements taken 
from the catalogue: 

"The Senior Collegiate Class and the Junior Class of law students 
proper pursue together, under the instruction of the law professor, the 
studies of International and Constitutional Law." Likewise law stu- 
dents were allowed, without extra charge, to attend lectures in the schools 
of letters and science with the consent of the professors. 

The Socratic method of instruction was adopted with provision for 
occasional lectures to seniors upon "local law and practice peculiar to 
Mississippi." 

By enactment of the Legislature, in 1857, the diploma conferring the 
degree of bachelor of law was made sufficient evidence of learning in the 
law to entitle the holder to a license to practice in the courts of the State. 

Mr. Stearns conducted the department with marked ability. He was 
a northern man by birth, but had, previous to his election, spent many 
years in the practice of his profession in Mississippi. He discharged his 
duties with efficiency, and continued in the service of the University until 
1861 when its doors were closed because of the civil war. After the war, 
sad to relate, Mr. Stearns died by his own hand. 

In 1860 the Legislature, by amendment of the charter of the University, 
created and endowed a second chair of law. The trustees in due time 
elected to this chair the Honorable James F. Trotter, of Holly Springs, 
who had adorned, successively, the Circuit, Chancery and Appellate bench 
of his State. 

In 1861 all the departments of the University were closed. In 1867 the 
Department of Law was reorganized. The Hon. Lucius Q. C. Lamar, 
that prince of teachers, was elected to the chair and continued to perform 
its duties until 1870 when he resigned to enter Congress. The Hon. J. 
A. P. Campbell was chosen as Mr. Lamar's successor, but did not accept 
the office. Henry Craft, Esq., of the Memphis Bar, was then elected, 
but he does not seem to have occupied the chair. 

Col. Jordan M. Phipps, a distinguished alumnus of the University, was 
elected adjunct professor, and taught the class of 1870-'71. 



62 UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 

Chancellor Thomas Walton, also a distinguished alumnus of the insti- 
tution, was made professor of law in 1871 and served till 1874. Dr. Ed- 
ward Mayes, another distinguished alumnus, succeeded Mr. Walton and, 
while Chancellor of the University, conducted the department of law until 
1892 when he resigned. Albert Hall Whitfield, now Chief Justice of the 
Supreme Court of Mississippi, followed Mr. Hayes and served till 1894 
when he resigned to go on the bench. Governor Garvin D. Shands was 
then called to the place, and during his administration, on account of the 
increased attendance and extended scope of instruction, it became nec~ 
essary to revive the second chair of law, which had been suspended in 
1861. This was done in 1897, and Thomas H. Somerville, of the Winona 
Bar, was elected to this chair. The office of dean of the department of 
law was created, and Governor Shands elected thereto. The course in 
Constitutional Law was enlarged. Private International Law, Insurance 
and Equity Pleadings and other topics were added to the curriculum. 

In 1905 Governor Shands resigned to accept the chair of Common Law 
in Tulane University; thereupon Mr. Somerville was made dean of the 
department and the Hon. Clarence L. Sivley was elected to the vacant 
chair. In 1906 Mr. Sivley resigned the place to accept a lucrative office 
as railway attorney in the city of Memphis. To the vacancy thus created 
the Hon. J. Elmore Holmes, of the Hernando Bar, was elected. Both 
Mr. Sivley and Mr. Holmes were honored graduates of the Law Depart- 
ment. 

Grateful recognition of the faithful service of distinguished lecturers 
should be here recorded. For many years the Hon. Jehu A. Orr, of Col- 
umbus, and the lamented Horatio F. Simrall, late Chief Justice of the 
Supreme Court of Mississippi, were accustomed to visit the University 
each session and devote a week to instruction by lectures on important 
topics of their own choosing. The Hon. Robt. A. Hill, late U. S. District 
Judge, long maintained the habit of greeting the class at the opening of 
the session, and during the year usually delivered a lecture on Federal 
Procedure. Each of these gentlemen was a trustee of the institution for 
many years. The first named still survives and is retained as a member 
of the stafif of lecturers. 

During the present administration the course of study has been ex- 
tended. Two full sessions of nine months each are now required for grad- 
uation. Plans are on foot for material improvements. 

It would be pleasant to advert to the attainments of the graduates of 
the school and to speak of their usefulness in the various walks of life 
and of their ability and efficiency in the service of the people, but the 
attempt would extend this paper beyond its legitimate limits. The roster 
of graduates and students published in this volume will register the con- 
tribution of the law departm.ent to the interests of the public and include 
the names of many who are high in authority, State and federal. It would 
be needless and cumbersome to reproduce their names here. All the in- 
cumbents of the Supreme bench are alumni of this school. 

Let it suffice to point to the agency of the Law Department in the cause 
of legal education. As shown in the foregoing sketch Thomas Walton, 



UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 63 

Edward Mayes, Clarence L. Sivley and J. Elmore Holmes have all served 
their abna mater as teachers, and the Hon. Lauch McLaurin, another 
distinguished graduate, is professor of law in the University of Texas. 



DEPARTMENT OF ENGINEERE^G. 

Courses in Engineering were first offered in the University immedi- 
ately after the close of the Civil War. In 1865 a chair of Physics, Astron- 
omy and Civil Engineering was organized and General Alexander P. Stew- 
art took charge as its head. He, however, retained the position only a 
few months and General Francis A. Shoup succeeded him. Gen. Shoup 
remained at the head of the chair from 1865 to 1867. In 1867 Physics and 
Astronomy were combined into a separate chair, with Dr. Landon C. 
Garland in charge, and General Shoup retained Civil Enginereing as a 
separate chair, its name, however, being changed to Applied Mathematics. 
He resigned in 1868 and for four years thereafter the Engineering work 
was discontinued, save Surveying, which was given in connection with 
Pure Mathematics by General Claudius W. Sears. In 1872, under the in- 
fluence of General Sears, the work was again introduced and the chair of 
Mathematics and Civil Engineering was instituted, with General Sears at 
its head. This chair was continued until 1875, when the Civil Engineer- 
ing was again abolished, and thereafter, with the exception of some work 
in Plane Surveying given by General Sears in connection with Pure Math- 
ematics, no further attempt was made to offer Engineering courses in the 
University until the fall of 1900, when the present department was organ- 
ized. 

The work of the department during these early years of its history 
included courses in Mechanical Drawing, Surveying, Descriptive Geom- 
etry, Mechanics, Hydraulics, Materials of Engineering and short de- 
scriptive courses in framed structures, masonry, highway construction 
and similar subjects, all this latter work being given as one composite 
course in the Senior year. It is both interesting and instructive to note 
that, even in these early years, when the South was stricken with material 
poverty because of the war and when there were available little of funds 
to purchase necessary equipment, that even with all these difficulties the 
courses offered measured well up to the standards of those times. That 
they should have been given at all is due to the heroism of those distin- 
guished men who were in control and who, in the roles of teachers, dis- 
played no less ability than they had exhibited as generals in the Confed- 
erate Army. But in spite of their efforts the work failed for lack of support 
and for lack of interest in it upon the part of young men. During all these 
years, though many students took one or more of the courses in Engineer- 
ing, only twenty became candidates for the degree of Civil Engineer as 
offered by the University, and of these twenty only two graduated. It 
was too soon after the Civil War for Southern educational ideas to change, 



64 UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 

and Civil Engineering at that date in the South was not regarded as a 
profession. Hence, few young men of talent and education could be in- 
duced to adopt it. Indeed the necessity for the radical change in her 
educational methods has been realized by the South only after a lapse 
of some thirty or forty years, and even now that change is in progress. 

In June, 1900, the Board of Trustees authorized the introduction of 
Engineering courses in connection with Pure Mathematics, and during 
the session 1900-'01 courses in Surveying and Drawing were given by the 
Professor of Mathematics, Dr. Alfred Hume. In the same year a chair 
of Electricity and Electrical Engineering was established and Professor 
Douglass S. Anderson put in charge. The equipment, both in Electricity 
and for Surveying and Drawing, was very meager and any extensive work 
was impossible. 

In June, 1901. Professor Anderson resigned and Professor Arthur W. 
Smith was made Professor of Electricity and Electrical Engineering. Pro- 
fessor Walter H. Drane was elected assistant in Mathematics and Civil 
Engineering, and, in addition to the work given the previous year, three 
other courses in Civil Engineering were offered — one in Analytical Me- 
chanics, one in Descriptive Geometry and one in Roofs and Bridges — the 
first and second by Dr. Hume, the third by Prof. Drane. 

In 1902 Professor Smith resigned, the chair of Electricity and Electrical 
Engineering was abolished and Electricity was combined with Physics 
and put in charge of Dr. John W. Johnson, the Professor of Physics. Pro- 
fessor Drane was made assistant in charge of Civil Engineering, the work, 
however, remaining under the general direction of the professor of Pure 
Mathematics, Dr. Alfred Hume. No additional equipment could be pur- 
chased, but the work was still further extended by the introduction of 
new courses and the attendance continued to increase. The Legislature, 
in the winter of 1903, made considerable appropriations for equipment 
and for a building, the latter fund being used to put additions to the Ly- 
ceum Building, several rooms of which were allotted to the use of Civil 
Engineering, Electricity and Electrical Engineering. Accordingly, in 
June following this appropriation, the Board of Trustees re-established 
the chair of Electricity and Electrical Engineering, and Professor Eugene 
Campbell was put in charge as full professor. Professor Walter H. Drane 
was made full professor of Civil Engineering, which was also made a; chair 
separate from Pure Mathematics. Large additions were made to the 
equipment and the work was again enlarged and extended by the intro- 
duction of new courses. This at once had its effect upon the growth of 
the work for the attendance immediately increased, the total enrollment 
being 43, the class enrollment being over 100. During the years 1903-'04, 
1904-'05, 1905-'06 the work in Engineering prospered and grew in magni- 
tude and importance. So much so that in June, 1905, Professor Robert 
H. McNeilley was elected assistant in Civil Engineering. It seemed that 
nothing was needed but work and patience to make the department sec- 
ond to none of its kind in the South, when its support was cut off by lack 
of appropriation by the Legislature. Curtailment became an absolute 
necessity, and in June, 1906, the chair of Electricity and Electrical Engin- 



V2^IVEB8ITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 65 

eering was again abolished and the work restored as a part of Physics, 
under Dr. John W. Johnson. Professor Robert H. McNeilley resigned 
and Professor J. H. Dorroh succeeded him, he, however, being made 
assistant professor of Civil Engineering. In 1907 all the work of Elec- 
tricity and Electrical Engineering was combined into one professional 
department, with Professor Walter H. Drane in charge and Professor 
J. H. Dorroh as assistant professor in charge of Electricity and Electrical 
Engineering. In June, 1908, the chair of Municipal and Sanitary Engin- 
eering was created and Professor J. H. Dorroh put at its head as full pro- 
fessor, also acting professor of Electrical Engineering. Professor Drane 
remained as the head of the department and professor of Civil 
Engineering. In that same year the chair of Geology was made a part 
of the Engineering department and Professor E. N. Lowe put in charge. 

It has been omitted to mention that early in this latter history of the 
department a School of Mines and Mining Engineering was established 
and courses published in the catalogue for several years, but no professor 
was ever appointed and practically nothing was accomplished. Accord- 
ingly, in 1906, this school was abolished and the chair of Municipal anp 
Sanitary Engineering established in its place. 

As at present organized the Engineering Department comprises four 
schools, viz.: Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Municipal and 
Sanitary Engineering and Geology. Professor Walter H. Drane is acting 
dean of the department and professor of Civil Engineering, Professor E. 
N. Lowe is professor of Geology and Professor J. H. Dorroh is professor 
of Municipal and Sanitary Engineering and acting professor of Electrical 
Engineering. While the department has never recovered from the cur- 
tailment of its support there are signs that there will be healthy growth 
in the future if a suitable building and sufficient equipment can be ob- 
tained. The attendance is on the increase and more and more interest 
is being manifested in its work by the young men. 

Some idea of the growth of the department since 1900 can be gained 
from the following approximate data: In 1900, 15 students were enrolled, 
about 12 units of work were offered, including that in Electricity, and the 
value of the equipment was about $2,000, including the electrical equip- 
ment; only one professor was in the department as such. 

At present the department occupies seven rooms in the Lyceum build- 
ing and one in the new Science Hall; its equipment, though by no means 
adequate, may be estimated to be worth $6,000; there are 50 units of work 
offered; since 1900 the number enrolled for degrees has been in the neigh- 
borhood of 200; the total number of graduates about 25; total number of 
students taking one or more courses in the department about 300, and 
there are three full professors in the department.

DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION. 

The history of the School of Pedagogy was traced in the last historical 
catalogue from the first suggestion of Chancellor Mayes that such a school 
be established with Dr. Deupree, then a Professor at Mississippi College, 
as its first Professor, to the incumbency of the chair by that honored 
Mississippi teacher and veteran soldier. In the present short sketch the 
history of the department as a separate professional division really be- 
gins. 

In 1893 the Chair of Pedagogy was established, with James Under- 
wood Barnard as Professor. He served three years and returned to Mis- 
souri to become Principal of a High School in Kansas City, where he 
remained till his death in January, 1909. 

In 189G J. G. Deupree was elected to the Chair of Pedagogy to succeed 
Professor Barnard, and held the same till 1905, when he was transferred 
to the Chair of Greek. The annual catalogues show progress and growth, 
and in 1903 the Department of Education, with J. G. Deupree as Dean, was 
established. At that time the School of Psychology, previously asso- 
ciated with Philosophy under the honored Dr. R. M. Leavell, was trans- 
ferred to the Department of Pedagogy, and Dr. T. P. Bailey, who had 
served the Universities of California and Chicago, was made Professor 
of Psychology and Applied Psychology. Mr. J. W. Bell, who had attracted 
the attention of the Board by his successful work as Superintendent of 
city schools, was appointed High School Visitor and Associate Professor 
of Pedagogy. Professor Bell served two years and then accepted a flat- 
tering call to the professorship of Mathematics at the Industrial Insti- 
tute and College, at that time presided over by our pre.sent able and de- 
voted Chancellor, Dr. A. A. Kincannon. In 1905 Mr. Robert Torrey, the 
efficient Superintendent of Schools of Yazoo City, succeeded Professor 
Bell as School Visitor and served one year. The office was then discon- 
tinued until the present year. 

In 1905 Dr. Deupree was transferred to the Department of Greek, a 
branch he loved and had taught for a number of years. Dr. Bailey was 
made Dean of the department and Professor of Psychology and Educa- 
tion. Miss Eula Deaton, the accomplished and beloved Dean of Women, 
was appointed Lecturer in the department and served efficiently until 
her retirement from the University. In 1906 the Department of Educa- 
tion was temporarily abolished, because it was supposed that a shortage 
in funds necessitated a decrease of the teaching force. But four weeks 
later, acting on a petition from the State Teachers' Association and the 
students of the University, the department was reinstated by unanimous 
vote of the Board. 

In 1908 Chancellor Kincannon asked the Dean of the Department to 
undertake the arduous but important task of working up the high school 
system of the State in connection with the co-operation of the General 
Education Board. Dr. Bailey was continued as Dean and took the title 



UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 67 

of Professor of Psychology and Secondary Education. The splendid 
spirit and cordial co-operation of the teachers of the State makes it pos- 
sible for this standardising and constructive work to be one that prom- 
ises great things for the high schools and the University. At this time a 
course for teachers wishing to work for professional license and to equip 
themselves for greater usefulness was instituted. Mr. Robert Torrey, 
formerly High School Visitor, was called from his superintendency at 
Jackson to take charge of this work, with the title of Professor of Ped- 
agogy. 

Reference to the current catalogue will show that the department has 
developed a flourishing teachers' club with fifty members; has secured 
the co-operation of the Oxford Graded School in the training work of the 
department; has greatly developed the institute conductors' course 
under the direction of the Dean of the department, and is striving in every 
legitimate way to make the department as useful as possible to the Uni- 
versity and to the cause of education in the State. 

The State institutions and the denominational and private colleges are 
joining the high schools of the State in giving hearty co-operation to the 
work of the department. When the Legislature is kind enough to help 
the department train leaders in education through the establishment of 
scholarships, the department will be in a position to render its full service 
to schools in the upbuilding of Mississippi's schools so admirably begun 
by Preston, Kincannon, Whitfield, and being continued by our zealous 
and progressive State Superintendent, J. N. Powers. Many whose names 
we do not mention have helped in this noble work, and the Department 
of Education hopes that their work and ours will soon put Mississippi 
where she belongs naturally — among the leading educational States of the 
Union. 



MEDICAL DEPARTMENT. 

It is interesting to know that as early as the year 1870-71 the Board of 
Trustees passed a resolution relative to establishing a medical depart- 
ment in the University. On the minutes of the Board will be found a 
resolution which reads: "This professional school will be organized and 
put in regular operation upon the plan in the University of Virginia, which 
has proved to be so eminently successful, just as soon as the resources of 
the institution shall have increased to a sufficient amount to admit it, 
and hopes are entertained by the friends of the University that the time 
will not be delayed much longer when this shall be realized." This state- 
ment is included in the catalogue from 1870-79. Doubtless the develop- 
ment of this important work was confronted by so many difficulties that 
the head of the institution could not foretell the future prosperity of the 
University with sufficient accuracy to predict the time when the action 
of the Board pertaining to a department of "Medicine and Surgery," as 
it was termed, could be carried into effect and so it was excluded from 
the catalogue of 1880. 



68 UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 

It seems that the matter was held in abeyance until Dr. R. B. Fulton, 
then professor of physics and astronomy, was elected to the chancellor- 
ship of the University. After making several attempts with varying 
degrees of success, the first two years of the medical course were organ- 
ized in June, 1903. 

During the first four years of the work the conditions were so unfa- 
vorable that results were accomplished with marked difficulty. The quar- 
ters in which the greater part of the course was being given consisted of 
two rooms in the Lyecum, the dissecting being done in a small frame 
building about fifty yards to the north of the Lyceum building. The con- 
struction of this building was made possible at the time by a gift from 
Hon. Harry Howard, then an honored member of the Board of Trustees. 
The faculty had to solve many troublesome problems and among them 
was the securing of cadavers. This was done with some degree of incon- 
venience until the meeting of the Legislature January 1, 190.5. Realizing 
the necessity of teaching this important branch in a satisfactory man- 
ner, it was deemed advisable to place a bill before the Legislature asking 
that all unclaimed bodies of the State Charity Hospitals be turned over, 
under the supervision of the State Board of Health, to the medical de- 
partment of the University. The bill on first presentation passed tha 
Senate, but, owing to the agitation of a certain feature of it, the motion 
was entered for a reconsideration and after a heated debate the measure 
was tabled and was not recovered during this session of the Legislature. 
Without any particular reason the medical department of the University 
was forced to go through another period of hardship and labor. The bill 
was again introduced at the next meeting of the Legislature and, by sub- 
jecting it to severe analysis previous to its discussion by the committee, 
it was recommended for passage and was made a law without any mate- 
rial opposition. 

The medical department has now quite commodious quarters in 
Science Hall, erected during the session of 190(H)7. 

Owing to the prevailing idea that it was necsesary to have a large city 
in order to teach medicine there were many physicians in the State who 
were inclined to oppose the organization of a medical school in Missis- 
sippi, but in view of the radical changes which have been inaugurated in 
the best medical colleges of America those who were interested in the 
making of a greater University of Missisippi, on carefully studying the 
question became convinced that the undertaking was in thorough accord 
with the modern methods of instruction in medicine. So the first two 
years were given with the understanding that the last two years should 
be added as soon as the University could come into possession of a hos- 
ital in which the clinical branches would be properly taught. 

In March, 1908, Chancellor Andrew A. Kincannon was approached by 
Dr. B. B. Martin and Dr. E. F. Howard relative to accepting the State 
Charity Hospital located at Vicksburg to be used for the purpose of estab- 
lishing the last two years of medicine as a part of the Medical Depart- 
ment of the University of Mississippi. Those gentlemen expressed the 
opinion that the Board of Aldermen and the Board of Supervisors of War- 



liyiVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 69 

ren County were disposed to turn over the hospital to the University for 
medical teaching, and if the Chancellor cared to consider the proposition 
the necessary papers would be drawn up and matters made in every way 
satisfactory to the authorities of the University. Chancellor Kincannon, 
realizing the need of medical education in the State, called a meeting of 
the Board of Trustees in Jackson, March 28, 1908, for the purpose of con- 
sidering the acceptance of the State Charity Hospital as part of the Uni- 
versity property and to be used in connection with the medical depart- 
ment. The Board appointed at this meeting a committee consisting of 
the Hon. W. E. Baskin, Hon. J. T. Senter and Hon. J. L. Taylor, to make 
a trip to Vicksburg to investigate the hospital relative to accepting it as 
property of the University to be used in the development of the medical 
department. 

At the next meeting of the Board the hospital was accepted. It was 
the intention at this time to begin the work of the last two years of the 
course in September, 1908, but owing to the limited time intervening 
between the acceptance of the hospital and the opening of the following 
session, it was thought best to defer the election of the Faculty for 
the course of the last two years and the making of other arrangements at 
Vicksburg until the succeeding year. 

The first faculty of the Department of Medicine consisted of the fol- 
lowing professors and lecturers: 

R. B. Fulton, M.A., LL.D., Chancellor of the University. 

R. W. Jones, M.A., LL.D., Professor of General and Medical Chemis- 
try. 

W. S. Leathers, M.D., Professor of Biology and Physiology. 

James B. Bullitt, M.A., M.D., Professor of Anatomy and Pathology. 

P. W. Rowland, M.D., Acting Professor of Materia Medica. 

J. W. Johnson, M.A., Ph.D., Professor of Physics. 

Eugene Campbell, B.P., M.A., Professor of Electricity. 

Thomas H. Somerville, LL.D., Professor of Medical Jurisprudence. 

Harry R. Fulton, B.A., Assistant in Biology and Physiology. 

Woodson A. Stevens, B.S., Assistant in Chemistry. 

J. M. Buchanan, M.D., Lecturer on Physiology of Nervous System. 

J. A. Crisler, M.D., Lecturer on Minor Surgery. 

H. A. Gant, M.D., Lecturer on Hygiene. 

J. F. Hunter, M.D., Lecturer on Physiology. 

H. L. Sutherland, M.D., Lecturer on Pathology. 

A. A. Young, Lecturer on Pathology and Bacteria. 



70 UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 



DEPARTMENT OF PHARMACY. 

Realizing the need of a college of Pharmacy in the State, on July 1, 
1908, the University of Mississippi added such a department coordinate 
with those already established. Accordingly, on September 24, 1908, the 
doors of the department of Pharmacy were opened for the reception of 
students. The first faculty was constituted as follows: 

Andrew A. Kincannon, LL.D., Chancellor. 

Thomas H. Somerville, LL.B., LL.D., Professor of Medical Jurispru- 
dence. 

Waller S. Leathers, M.D., Professor of Physiology and Botany. 

Peter W. Rowland, M.D., Professor of Materia Medica. 

Anthony M. Muckenfuss, Ph.D., Professor of Chemistry. 

Henry Minor Faser, Professor of Practical and Theoretical Pharmacy. 

George Lucas Paddison, Assistant in Chemistry. 

Fifteen students applied for entrance with the opening of the session, 
and the department has very flattering prospects of something like thirty- 
five students in both classes with the opening of the second year. When 
we consider the fact that quite a number of the most reputable colleges 
of Pharmacy opened their doors with a smaller number than we have en- 
rolled, and when we consider further that the department was established 
only two months before the opening of the session, we have reason for 
being highly satisfied with the enrollment we have made. 

The aim of this department is to provide instruction for students who 
desire to acquire the special training necessary for the successful practice 
of Pharmacy. The importance both to the pharmacist and to the public 
of a thorough, scientific training in Pharmacy, is now fully recognized. 
The course extends throughout two collegiate sessions, nine months each. 
Every student taking the course is given eight hundred and sixty-four 
hours of lectures and recitations and nine hundred and thirty-six hours 
of laboratory work. The department is admirably equipped for doing 
excellent work. The three laboratories are provided with all the neces- 
sary fixtures and conveniences for all general purposes, and contain fully 
equipped stands with reagents; and, for each student, a closet with ap- 
paratus under his own lock and key. 

The chemical laboratory is located in the Lyceum building. During 
the past year the University has expended $4,500 in repairing and increas- 
ing its equipment. The pharmaceutical laboratory is located on the first 
floor, west end of the new Science Hall. It is one of the finest and best 
equipped rooms of its kind to be found anywhere. It is spacious, airy, 
well lighted and well ventilated, and has individual working tables and 
lockers for each student. Gas and water are supplied at each stand and 
large washing sinks are amply provided to meet every requirement. Brief- 
ly put, we have every convenience needed to carry out the purpose of this 
department successfully. The practical Materia Medica and Botany 



UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 71 

laboratory is located on the second floor of the Science Hall. This is a 
large and convenient room. The desks are designed for microscopical 
work, and appropriate illumination is supplied for each pupil. The ample 
laboratory equipment consists of both simple and compound microscopes 
of the most approved patterns, all the principal microscopical accessories, 
modern reagents, mounting material, etc. 

The lecture halls are large and spacious; each branch of the department 
has its own lecture room, and each is provided with comfortable chairs 
to accommodate one hundred students. The lecture rooms and labora- 
tories are lighted by electricity and heated by steam; they have been 
carefully arranged so as to give the greatest comfort to the student and 
the best conveniences to the teachers. Each subject of the department 
is taught by a specialist in his particular branch. The department has 
established high and thorough standards and confidently expects to con- 
tribute service to the profession through the increasing number of grad- 
uates that it shall send out from year to year. 



PRESIDENTS AND CHANCELLORS. 

GEOBGE FBEDEBICK HOLMES, I.L.D. 

Born in Guiana, South America, in 1820, a graduate of Durham Uni- 
versity, in England, George Frederick Holmes came to the United States 
in 1838. After teaching school for several years in Virginia, Georgia and 
South Carolina, and, though unnaturalized, having been admitted to the 
bar in South Carolina by special act of the Legislature, he was elected, 
in 1847, Professor of History, Political Economy and International Law 
in William and Mary College, Virginia. July 12, 1848, at the age of 28, 
he was chosen the first President of the University of Mississippi. The 
arduous duties of his office, made unusually trying by the turbulent spirit 
of the student body, proved too great a strain upon his physical strength, 
and in April, 1849, President Holmes returned to Virginia to regain his 
health and for the benefit also of that of some member of his family. Com- 
mencement came and he had not returned or been heard from, though it 
is said that he had written and was on the eve of starting southward. 
In his absence the Board of Trustees unanimously declared his office va- 
cant, and elected Augustus B. Longstreet, of Georgia, his successor. Dr. 
Holmes became Professor of History and Literature in the University 
of Virginia in 1857 and for forty years was eminent in his service to that 
great institution, noted for his legal attainments as well as for his re- 
searches in history and literature. He was the author of a number of text- 
books for Southern schools, and by the series of readers which bear his 
name is now perhaps most widely known. His death occurred November 
4, 1897. 

AUGUSTA BALDWIN LONGSTREET, LLD., D.D. 

Under conditions peculiarly unfavorable, the second President of the 
University entered upon the discharge of his difficult and delicate respon- 



72 UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 

sibilities. But the Trustees had evidently chosen wisely. Disorder di- 
minished, attendance increased and the reputation of the University was 
improved and extended. "Judge Longstreet," as he was best known, was 
born in Augusta, Georgia, September 22, 1790. He was prepared for col- 
lege by Dr. Moses Waddel at the once famous "Willington Academy" in 
South Carolina. In 1813 he graduated at Yale College, and then studied 
law at Litchfield, Conn. Returning to Georgia he rapidly rose to dis- 
tinction as a lawyer and orator. He was appointed judge but declined 
the ofiice, and was entering upon a canvass for Congressional honors, 
with confidence of election, when an irresistible call to preach caused him 
to give up his prospects of wealth and political preferment and enter the 
humbler but, as he testifies, happier life of a Methodist itinerant. Ere 
long the circuit-rider was transformed into the college president, and for 
thirteen years Emory College, Georgia, felt his gently, firmly, guiding 
hand, and entered fully on its career of usefulness and honor. He resigned 
the presidency of Emory College in 1848 and shortly after was elected 
President of Centenary College, Louisiana. In 1849 he was unanimously 
chosen President of the University of Mississippi, having failed of the 
election the year before by only one vote. As has been stated, under his 
wise administration discipline was enforced and rapid progress was 
achieved. Owing chiefly, it seems, to dissensions in the faculty, and to 
some extent among the trustees, President Longstreet, in July, 1856, 
tendered his resignation. It was accepted with regret and under protest 
by the Board of Trustees. From 1857 to 1859 he was President of the 
University of South Carolina. After the war, which suspended that 
University and others in the South, he returned to Oxford, Miss., where, 
in his eightieth year, July 9, 1870, he died in the midst of his family and 
friends. His remains now rest under a handsome monument near the 
entrance to the Oxford Cemetery. As a preacher he was earnest, deeply 
spiritual and persuasive, though it is said he never attempted eloquence 
in the pulpit. His political and educational writings were sound and 
forcible. As the author of "Georgia Scenes," humorous sketches of early 
nineteenth century life in Georgia, autobiographical in part, "Judge 
Longstreet" holds a secure place in Southern literature. It may be added 
that he is said to have deprecated the work in his latter days, and even 
sought to suppress it. He as President, his son-in-law, L. Q. C. Lamar, 
as Professor, and Edward Mayes, son-in-law of Lamar, as Chancellor, 
have largely shaped the destiny of this University. 

FKEDERICK AUGUSTUS PORTER BAKNABD. S.T.D., LLD., L.H.D., D.C.8. 

This distinguished mathematician, physicist and educator, third Pres- 
ident and first Chancellor of the University, was born in Sheffield, Mass., 
May 5, 1809. He graduated from Yale in 1828, and a few years later, for 
the improvement of his health, sought educational work in the South. 
From 1833 to 1848 he was Professor of Mathematics and Natural Phil- 
osophy in the University of Alabama, and from 1848 to 1854 of Chemistry 
and Natural Philosophy in that institution. As the successor of Dr. A. T. 
Bledsoe, he became Professor of Mathematics, Natural Philosophy and 



UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 73 

Civil Engineering in the University of Mississippi in 1854. That year, a 
Oxford, he was ordained a priest of the Episcopal Church by Bishop 
Greene. Succeeding President Longstreet in 1856 he at once addressed 
himself earnestly to the task of broadening the curriculum and equipping 
more completely the scientific departments. His published "Letter to 
the Trustees" and his address before the Legislature made a deep impres- 
sion in favor of higher education and secured for the University a liberal 
appropriation. By this means the Observatory Building was erected, 
apparatus for it and the chemical laboratory provided, and the valuable 
collections in the biological museums purchased. A very large tele- 
scope was ordered, but never received on account of the outbreak of war. 
In 1858 Dr. Barnard's title was changed from that of President to Chan- 
cellor. When the doors of the University were closed in 1861 Chancellor 
Barnard returned to the North, and in 1863-64 was connected with the 
U. S. Coast Survey in Washington. Through his influence, in part, the 
buildings and other property of the University were not destroyed by the 
Federal Army. He was chosen President of Columbia College, N. Y., in 
1864, and with that institution his name and fame are inseparably associ- 
ated. He found it in 1864 a second or third rate college and left it at his 
death, in 1889, one of the leading institutions of learning in America. 
Barnard College, the annex for women to Columbia University, appro- 
priately bears his name for he was always a warm advocate of the higher 
education of women. In recognition of his valuable services to the cause 
of science and education, degrees and honors were showered upon him 
and high trusts were committed to him. In 1860 he was a member of the 
Labrador Eclipse Expedition, sent out by the Coast Survey. The same 
year he was elected President of the American Association for the Ad- 
vancement of Science. He was one of the United States Commissioners 
to the Paris Exposition in 1867. His publications were chiefly scientific 
and educational. Shortly after his death in New York, April 27, 1889, 
in Harper's Weekly there appeared a noble tribute, from which this as 
the central thought is taken: "The death of Dr. Barnard deprives Ameri- 
can Science of one of its foremost representatives; Columbia College of 
the ablest and most successful in its line of presidents." 

JOHN NEWTON WADDEL, D.D., LL.D. 

The son of the Rev. Moses Waddel, D.D., founder of "Willington 
Academy," and afterward President of the University of Georgia, Chan- 
cellor J. N. Waddel was born at Willington, S. C, April 2, 1812. He at- 
tended first his father's school and then the University of Georgia, from 
which he was graduated in 1829 with distinction. For a year or two he 
taught in the "Willington Academy" and then turned to farming. In 
1837 he moved with his small family to Greene County, Alabama, and in 
1840 he settled in Jasper County, Mississippi. The year following he 
entered the ministry of the Presbyterian Church, and soon thereafter 
established "Montrose Academy," which in a few years became the edu- 
cational center of Southeast Mississippi. As one of the charter members 
of the Board of Trustees of the University, Dr. Waddel rode horseback 



74 UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 

from Jasper County to Oxford, over two hundred miles, in April, 1847, to 
attend a meeting of the Board. He was appointed Chairman of the com- 
mittee to arrange a course of study, and his report was, at the next meet- 
ing of the trustees, adopted, in spite of a vigorous effort by two of them 
to strike "Evidences of Christianity" from the course. Having resigned 
from the Board of Trustees in January, 1848, the July following Dr. Wad- 
del was elected Professor of Ancient Languages. Urged by officials in 
his church, in 1857 he reluctantly resigned his chair in the University to 
accept the Professorship of Ancient Languages in the La Grange, Tenn., 
Presbyterian Synodical College. When the University was reorganized 
in 1865, Dr. Waddel was called to the Chancellorship. In 1869 he made 
a tour of inspection of the leading colleges, North and South, with a view 
to the reorganization of the curriculum of the University which then led 
only to the B. A. degree in the academic department. The curriculum 
of the University of Michigan, with modifications, was, on his recommen- 
dation, adopted in 1870, and in its main features is still in force. The 
days of "reconstruction" came and the University was for several years 
in great straits. Chancellor Waddel's "Open Letter" in September, 1870, 
in which he stated that he and his colleagues would resign before they 
would matriculate negro students, combined with Governor Alcorn's 
support and the establishment of Alcorn A. and M. College that year, 
"saved the University." At the commencement of 1873, the twenty-fifth 
anniversary of the University was celebrated with appropriate exercises. 
The Board of Trustees published Chancellor Waddel's "Historical Ad- 
dress" in pamphlet form, and requested him to write a "History of the 
University. When, in June, 1874, he tendered his resignation, the Board 
for one month declined to accept it, but on his refusal then to withdraw 
it they elected General Alexander P. Stewart as his successor. As Sec- 
retary of Education for the Southern Presbyterian Church from 1874 to 
1879 and as Chancellor of the Southwestern Presbyterian University at 
Clarksville, Tenn., from 1879 to 1888 Dr. Waddel's latter years were full 
of honor and of blessing to mankind. He died at Birmingham, Alabama, 
January 9, 1895, having given fifty years of his life to the cause of Southern 
education, and twenty-two of the best of these years to the University 
of Mississippi as trustee, professor and chancellor. 

GENEKAX, ALEXANDER P. STEWART, LL.D., F.R.H.S. 

General Stewart was born at Rogersville, Tenn., October 2, 1821. He 
graduated at the U. S. Military Academy in 1842, and from 1843 to 1845 
was Assistant Professor of Mathematics in that institution. From 1845 
to 1869 he was Professor of Mathematics and Natural Philosophy in Cum- 
berland and Nashville Universities. Commissioned Brigadier General 
C. S. A. in 1861, he was in command of the Army of Tennessee at the close 
of the war. In 1866 he was offered the chair of Physics, Astronomy and 
Civil Engineering in the University of Mississippi, but declined it. He 
succeeded Dr. Waddel as Chancellor of the University in 1874 and resigned 
in 1886, the longest term any President or Chancellor had then served. 
General Stewart was the Southern member of the Chickamauga and Chat- 



UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 75 

tanooga National Park Commission from 1890 until his death. Before 
the Legislature of 1902 he made an eloquent plea for an appropriation 
for suitable memorials to Mississippi heroes slain on those bloody battle 
fields. General Stewart assumed the Chancellorship at a trying period. 
The "reconstruction" ordeal was not yet passed, attendance on the Uni- 
versity was decreasing, and its future was not promising. The Law De- 
partment had been suspended. In 1877 that department was re-estab- 
lished and tuition in the Academic Department was abolished. As a 
result of these measures the enrollment in 1877-78 was the highest up to 
that time in the history of the University, the total being 471, including 
259 in the Preparatory Department. The admission of women in 1882 is 
another important event in General Stewart's administration. Judge A. 
M. Clayton and Hon. H. M. Sullivan appear to have been the members 
of the Board of Trustees who proposed and most earnestly advocated 
this policy. In the management of the finances of the University Gen- 
eral Stewart was remarkably systematic and judicious. Military in his 
bearing, the impersonation of dignity, he was no less affable and sympa- 
thetic, deeply concerned for the temporal and spiritual welfare of the 
students, collectively and individually. This concern was manifested in 
earnest, private conferences, as well as in his chapel talks and baccalau- 
reate addresses. The writer remembers on his graduating day to have 
heard Judge H. H. Chalmers say to another member of the Board of 
Trustees, after Chancellor Stewart had spoken his parting words to the 
literary graduates and then to the law graduates in lines of thought very 
different and yet equally excellent, "There is not another man in the State 
who could make in succession two addresses so similar and yet so differ- 
ent, and both of such high order." He died at Biloxi, Mississippi, Au- 
gust 30, 1908, and was buried in Bellefontaine Cemetery, St. Louis. 

E:DWARD MAYES, LL.D., F.8.C. 

The first chief executive of the University chosen from its alumni, and 
the only native of the State as yet thus honored, (the present Chancellor 
excepted), is Hon. Edward Mayes, who was born in Hinds County, Miss., 
December 15, 1846. He attended Bethany College, Virginia, in 1860-61, 
served in the Confederate Army in 1864-65, graduated from the literary 
department of the University of Mississippi in 1868 and from the law 
department in 1869, was Professor of Law in the University from 1877 
to 1892, Chairman of the Faculty 1886-89, Chancellor of the University 
1889-92. Among the significant events and improvements during the 
administration of Chancellor Mayes mention should be made of the 
following: 1. His great controversy with Senator George on the Endow- 
ment Act of 1880, by which the State recognized its indebtedness to 
the University and provided for the appropriation to it of the annual 
interest upon this debt. That the settlement was unshaken shows how 
masterly was Chancellor Mayes' presentation of the University side 
of the question. 2. Erection of the Library Building, the addition of 
several thousand dollars' worth of books and the reclassification of the 
entire library. 3. Renovation of the dormitories and professors' 



76 UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 

residences. 4. Reorganization of the curriculum in 1889, making the 
courses for the B.A., B.S. and B.P. degrees more distinctive. 5. Laying 
of the brick walks on the campus and the purchase of the large new 
telescope. 6. The tour of the State in the interest of the University- 
made by Chancellor Mayes, and his Chairmanship of the Committee on 
Bill of Rights in the Constitutional Convention in 1890 also deserve men- 
tion among the important events of his administration. As an author 
Dr. Mayes is entitled to additional distinction. Without enumerating 
his legal publications, it will be sufficient to refer to his valuable "His- 
tory of Education in Mississippi" and to his admirable "Life, Times and 
Speeches of L. Q. C. Lamar." That he was a delegate to the Methodist 
Ecumenical Conferences of 1891 and 1901 indicates his church relation- 
ship and the esteem and confidence entertained toward him by his church. 
Since his resignation of the Chancellorship, Mr. Mayes has been the attor- 
ney of the Illinois Central Railroad before the Supreme Courts. From 
1895 to 1900 he was Professor of Law in Millsaps Methodist College, Jack- 
son, Miss. Still in the vigor of manhood, with a national reputation as 
a lawyer, Ex-Chancellor Mayes, for character, attainments and services, 
ranks among the most eminent of the sons of Mississippi. 

ROBERT BURWELL FULTON, A.M., LL.D. 

Dr. R. B. Fulton was born in Sumter County, Alabama, in April, 1849. 
His father was a successful planter, who believed in giving his sons the 
best educational opportunities. Dr. Fulton was taught at home until in 
his thirteenth year he entered an academy at Pleasant Ridge, Greene 
County, Alabama, where he studied three years until the spring of 1865. 
In 1865-66 he studied in the private school of Rev. C. M. Hutton and in 
the fall of 1866 entered the Sophomore class in the University of Missis- 
sippi. In 1869 he graduated with the highest rank and first honors in an 
unusually strong class of twenty-one men. 

After an experience of a session and a half in teaching in high schools 
in Alabama and in New Orleans, he was offered the place of Assistant 
Professor of Physics and Astronomy in the University, and entered upon 
the duties of this position March 5, 1871. 

He served the University of Mississippi continuously from that date 
to the time of his resignation in September, 1906, giving the longest period 
of service of any man ever connected with the Institution. That his 
service during these years was uniformly successful is shown by the fact 
that it was rendered under various administrations and under varying 
conditions, and that it led to continuous promotion. A former professor 
in the University expressed what is generally known of Chancellor Fulton 
when he wrote that "with a long term of service ranging from tutorship 
to chancellorship, no man knows the institution so thoroughly as he, or 
has labored longer or more successfully for its upbuilding." 

Of the more important events and lines of progress that characterized 
his administration the following may be cited: (1) The abolishing of 
preparatory classes in 1892; (2) the inauguration in 1893 of summer terms 
that drew altogether over 2,000 individual teachers to the University; (3)

the securing from Congress, by his own initiative and efforts, of a 
grant of 23,040 acres of land for the University in 1894, which added $10,- 
000 to the annual revenues of the University and which opened the way 
to other grants to the other colleges of the State, which grants put over 
$600,000 into the State Treasury for the benefit of these institutuons; (4) 
the development of a system of public and other high schools affiliated 
with the University, numbering over SO, in which preparation for Uni- 
versity classes was given; (5) the enlargement and beautifying of the 
University grounds, the introduction of waterworks, sewerage, electric 
lights, steam heating; (6) the repairing of old and the erection of new 
buildings, and the increase of scientific equipment that more than doubled 
the value of the plant; (7) the enlargement from a college to a university 
curriculum by the establishment of departments of Engineering (Civil, 
Mining and Electrical), Education and Medicine. In 1892 there were 157 
University students enrolled, there were 15 professors and instructors, 
the total annual revenues were less than $40,000, the buildings were di- 
lapidated and the University was in need of all things. During the ses- 
sion 1905-06, the last under his administration, there were enrolled 361 
University students, there were 31 professors and instructors, and the 
total revenues of the University were over $80,000, with other funds avail- 
able for new buildings to be erected. Besides these improvements, he 
had, after obtaining the written approval of a majority of the Board, 
secured, in 1905, the offer of a handsome library from Mr. Andrew Carne- 
gie, which offer was afterwards declined by the Board. He secured from 
individual friends, in and out of the State, funds for the Summer School, 
and for prizes and other current needs of the institution. 

Chancellor Fulton has been thrice honored with the degree of Doctor 
of Laws, holding this honor from the University of Nashville, South Caro- 
lina College and the University of Alabama. Dr. Fulton has been prom- 
inent in all educational work, in and out of the State. He took the in- 
itiative in organizing the National Association of State Universities, 
including the presidents of forty State Universities, and was for five suc- 
cessive years elected president of the Association, which at its meeting in 
November, 1905, had the presidents of thirty-nine State Universities pres- 
ent. He was president of the Richmond meeting of the Southern Edu- 
cational Association, and was president of the Department of Higher 
Education of the National Educational Association at its Los Angeles 
meeting, of which Association he is a director and a member of the Council . 
He is a member of a number of scientific societies and a fellow, by elec- 
tion, of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. He 
is an Elder in the Presbyterian Church and has represented his church on 
several occasions in the General Assembly and in the Pan-Presbyterian 
Alliance. He was for years a member of the Executive Committee of 
the Mississippi Historical Society, and a Trustee of the Department of 
Archives and History and was an active member of the State commis- 
sion in charge of the geological survey of Mississippi. 

One who was long actively associated with him in the University of 
Mississippi characterizes him as "scholarly, yet practical; versatile, yet 



78 UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 

accurate, energetic, tactful and systematic. Chancellor Fulton, in addi- 
tion to his thorough acquaintance with the history and needs of the Uni- 
versity, possesses a combination of gifts and attainments which fits him in 
a high degree for the office which he has filled so ably." 

In his college days Chancellor Fulton was a member of the Chi Psi 
Fraternity, which has had no chapter at the Uuiversity for many years. 
Without bias or prejudice in his administration, he strove to be just to 
all, and was ever the friend of the poor boy struggling for an education. 
The Alumni Loan Fund was founded at his instance. Still in full vigor, 
he has taken up the administration of the affairs of the noted Miller 
School in Virginia, founded for this class of boys, who have always had 
his interest and sympathy. 

That he had to face and overcome many difficulties in his great work 
at the University of Mississippi goes without saying. His deep and abid- 
ing interest in the main purpose of his work, the advancement of the Uni- 
versity of Mississippi in all that makes for the uplift of the State, left 
no place in his mind for bitterness toward any who differed with him or 
strove against his work. No change of affairs can mar the record of his 
achievements for his Alma Mater, every blade of grass and every stone 
on whose grounds, as well as every person connected with her, he was 
known to love. 

ANDREW ABMSTEONG KINCANNON", A.B., M.S., LL.D. 

Over obstacles that few could have surmounted, overcoming opposi- 
tion at every step that would have daunted a less manly soul, Andrew 
Armstrong Kincannon has written his name at the top of the roll of Mis- 
sissippi educators. The very utterance of the name suggests the strength 
and resoluteness of him who bears it and reminds those who have watched 
with admiration his steady, upward stride to State and national reputa- 
tion that the real strength of the man and the chief element of his success 
has been, not so much his vigorous intellect and clear insight into men 
and measures, important as these have been, but rather a great warm heart 
which has enfolded his State, and uniting with his indomitable will has 
made to him no service too arduous, no sacrifice too great in behalf of the 
sons and daughters of Mississippi. Space permits a mere outline sketch 
of a life unusually full of beneficence and honors. 

Born in Noxubee County, August 2, 1859, a child amid the gloom and 
disaster of the early sixties, educated in Lee County in the days of recon- 
struction, revolution and financial reverses, Andrew Armstrong Kin- 
cannon, the second son of James and M. A. Kincannon, early learned the 
lessons of self-help and self-denial. The impress of both father and mother 
are easily discernible in his character, and his devotion to his parents and 
to his brothers and sisters have ever been strikingly manifest. 

From the Verona High School, where he was the pupil of both Drs. 
Deupree and Leavell, of the University faculty, he went to the State Uni- 
versity. At the University he was elected anniversarian of the Phi Sigma 
Literary Society, but resigned and afterward urged a change in the method 
of selecting the anniversarian. From the University he went to the Nor- 



UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 79 

mal University, Lebanon, Ohio, from which institution he took both the 
A.B. and M. S. degrees. At the University and in his difficult early years 
as teacher in the Verona High School, where he had been a pupil, he gave 
evidence of that executive ability for which he has later become distin- 
guished. 

Three valuable years were spent as assistant professor of English at 
the Mississippi A. and M. College, under the immediate direction of that 
prince of English teachers. Dr. W. H. Magruder, and under the general 
supervision and friendly counsel of Gen. Stephen D. Lee, well termed the 
"father of industrial education in the South." In 1886, as Superintendent 
of Meridian Public Schools, A. A. Kinoannon came into prominence as a 
leader in the educational awakening and reorganization of the common 
schools of the State. He found in Meridian a single, disorganized, un- 
equipped school; in ten years he added five schools and developed a pop- 
ular, well articulated city school system. During this period his influ- 
ence in the State Teachers' Association and in county institutes was nota- 
bly weighty in the promotion of various reforms, and naturally so, being 
as he was, the founder and head of the first and largest city school system 
in the State. 

It should be mentioned that in 1888 an epoch in his life was made when 
he was united in marriage with Miss Mary George Barksdale, daughter 
of William R. Barksdale, of Grenada, Miss., and oldest grandchild of 
Senator J. Z. George. Thus added incentive to effort came into his life, 
and with it the sympathy and encouragement of a wife who has always 
entered fully into his plans and has often proven herself singularly wise 
and timely in her counsel. 

In 1895, after a brilliant canvass, in which he triumphed over a polit- 
ical combination that seemed invincible, Mr. Kincannon was nominated 
by acclamation for State Superintendent of Education by the largest 
Democratic Convention ever assembled in Mississippi. In spite of the 
strong sentiment in the Legislature of 1896 favoring the reduction of the 
common school fund, the appropriation committee recommending only 
$700,000, Superintendent Kincannon succeeded in inducing the Legis- 
lature to increase the appropriation to $950,000 per annum, and secured 
also an increased appropriation for summer normals. Of the wholesome 
school laws that bear his impress mention will be made of only one, the 
creation of the State Board of Examiners, generally conceded by the best 
authorities to be a wise statute. Not one of the school laws adpoted on 
his recommendation has ever been repealed. His reports as State Super- 
intendent of Education to the Legislature attracted wide attention on 
account of their excellence both in subject matter and style. Favorable 
criticism was evoked from the leading school journals of the United States. 

Meanwhile the Industrial Institute and College for the white girls of 
the State, having passed through years of internal discord and weakness 
of administration, had reached a crisis in its history. Doubtful indeed, 
if the Legislature would appropriate funds for its support, as matters then 
stood, Governor McLaurin, Bishop Galloway and others members of the 
Board of Trustees urged Superintendent Kincannon as a patriotic Mis- 



80 UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. 

sissippian to accept the presidency of the college and save the institution. 
With his plans for the public school system but beginning to be devel- 
oped, and expecting no call to other work for years to come, Superintend- 
ent Kincannon reluctantly resigned his State office and accepted the 
presidency of the 1. 1, and C, having been unanimously elected by the Board 
of Trustees, responding to the call of duty and the claims of the girls 
of Mississippi, as the Board presented the case to him. The transforma- 
tion at once wrought in the college, the doubling in a few years of its fac- 
ulty and student body, the addition of building after building, and the 
ready response of successive Legislatures to President Kincannon's elo- 
quent appeals for funds to meet the increasing needs of the great insti- 
tution, fondly proclaimed by Governor Vardaman and others "the pride 
of the State," are facts as far famed as the institution, attesting 
how efficiently President Kincannon met the great demands made upon 
him, and far surpassed the expectations of the Board and even the best 
of his friends. So distinguished have been his services to the I. I. and C. 
that repeatedly has he been called to similar positions in other States. 
But these have moved him little, for to his own State duty and affection 
have held him inflexibly firm, supremely loyal. 

In November, 1906, he was called to the chancellorship of the State 
University, but declined to accept it for reasons satisfactory to himself. 
In June, 1907, Mr. Kincannon was again elected to the chancellorship of 
the University, and after having had more power conferred upon him 
than heretofore given to any chancellor, he accepted it. 

Chancellor Kincannon holds the LL.D. degree from the University 
of Arkansas. He has been a Director of the National Education Asso- 
ciation, and is now a Director of the Southern Educational Association. 
He has also served as a member of the State Board of Examiners. 

Of the important events and improvements which have marked the 
opening years of Chancellor Kincannon's administration, the following 
may be enumerated: 1. The "honor system" has been crystalized and 
rendered more effective by the creation of an Honor Council representa- 
tive of the entire student body. 2. A Student Bureau of Self Help has 
been successfully inaugurated. 3. The Legislature of 1908 made the Uni- 
versity the largest appropriation in the latter's history. As results, a 
large, handsome and thoroughly equipped dormitory for men, a commo- 
dious and beautiful dining hall and a new power house have been built; 
the light and heat distributing systems have been renewed and enlarged; 
and about one-half mile of wide concrete walks have been laid where most 
needed on the campus. 5. Plans have been drawn and most of the neces- 
sary funds secured for a magnificent new library building. G. A Depart- 
ment of Pharmacy has been established and has been in most successful 
operation since the opening of the session of 1908-09. 7. While the first 
two years of a regular four-year course in Medicine have been given since 
1903, not until the beginning of the session of 1909-10 were the last two 
years added. The second half of the complete course is now being offered 
to a fine body of students at Vicksburg in connection with the State Char- 
ity Hospital of that city. This property, valued at $150,000, was acquired 



UNIVERiilTY OF MISSISSIPPI. 81 

by the University in 1908. Five full professors and nine assistants are 
engaged in the work of instruction at Vicksburg. 8. The attendance has 
continued to increase until there are at this time, November, 1909, very 
nearly five hundred students enrolled. Chancellor Kincannon has more 
than met expectations and bids fair to place the University of Mississippi 
higher yet in the educational roll of the country.

Note. — The change from the close curriculum to the University system 
in 1872 renders a new and diflferent classification of students necessary. 
The following lists contain the names of all new students admitted during 
the session ending in the year stated, and of all the graduates of each year. 
The names of the graduates of 1875 or 1876, and all succeeding years, are 
therefore found twice in the lists— once as new students, then as graduates.

ALPHABETICAL INDEX 



OF 



NAMES OF STUDENTS. 



This alphabetical list contains the names of all students from the open- 
ing of the University in 1848 to the end of the session of 1908-09. The total 
number of individual students enrolled in all departments during this period 
is 6,398. The total number of individual graduates (alumni) is 1,050. (This 
does not include those receiving honorary degrees.) The aggregate 
number of academic and professional degrees and department diplomas 
conferred, 1,801, exceeds the number of alumni for the reason that some re- 
ceived both a Bachelor's degree and the Master of Arts, others graduated 
both in the Academic Department and a Professional Department, while a 
few took three degrees. 

The date following each name shows one year in which the student at- 
tended the University, and further information may be had by consulting 
the lists for that year in this catalogue. The abbreviated date (e. g., '68) 
indicates that the student graduated in this year. The Letter "L" before 
a date indicates that the student was in the Law Department. When the 
letter "G," in parenthesis, follows a name the meaning is that the student 
registered for graduate work during the session indicated. (See list of Grad- 
uate Students, page 325.) 

In the revision of this alphabetical list, as also in the preparation of the 
statistical table which precedes it, the editor has exercised care and has made 
use of all information available.
